... characterization of particles erosion mechanism Al-99.92 The damage reduction in elevated temperatures is generally associated with the so-called thermodynamic effect ( 10 ). When the local liquid pressure drops sufficiently for cavitation to take place, existing cavitating bubbles grow by vaporization...

... in closed systems. Systematic observations of disloged particles and eroded surface morphology show that the dominant failure mode in cavitation erosion is fatigue. aluminium fatigue surface morphology wear cavitation erosion erosion particles characterization of particles erosion mechanisms...
