1Corrosion fatigue — is fatigue in a corrosive environment. It is the mechanical degradation of a material under the joint action of corrosion and cyclic loading. Nearly all engineering structures experience some form of alternating stress, and are exposed to harmful …
2Corrosion loop — Corrosion loop(s) are systemised analysis loops used during Risk based inspection analysis. Both terms “RBI Corrosion loops” or “RBI corrosion circuits” are generic terms used to indicate the systemisation of piping systems into usable and… …
3Erosion corrosion of copper water tubes — Erosion corrosion, also known as impingement damage, is the combined effect of corrosion and erosion caused by rapid flowing turbulent water. It is probably the second most common cause of copper tube failures behind Type 1 pitting which is also… …
4Flow-accelerated corrosion — (FAC), also known as flow assisted corrosion, is a corrosion mechanism in which a normally protective oxide layer on a metal surface dissolves in a fast flowing water. The underlying metal corrodes to re create the oxide, and thus the metal loss… …
5High-velocity oxy-fuel coating — High velocity oxy fuel (HVOF) coating is a thermal spray technique used to deposit protective coatings on a substrate.A blend of fuel (gaseous or liquid) and oxygen is injected into a torch and burned. The combustion products flow through a… …
6Fouling — This article is about fouling in engineering. For uses of the term foul outside technology, see Foul (disambiguation). Not to be confused with fowling. Heat exchanger in a steam power plant, fouled by macro fouling …
7steel — steellike, adj. /steel/, n. 1. any of various modified forms of iron, artificially produced, having a carbon content less than that of pig iron and more than that of wrought iron, and having qualities of hardness, elasticity, and strength varying …
8Drilling fluid — This article is about fluids used when drilling a well. For fluids used with drill bits during metal working, see cutting fluid. Driller pouring a foaming agent down the rod string on a drilling rig In geotechnical engineering, drilling fluid is… …
9pipeline — /puyp luyn /, n., v., pipelined, pipelining. n. 1. a long tubular conduit or series of pipes, often underground, with pumps and valves for flow control, used to transport crude oil, natural gas, water, etc., esp. over great distances. 2. a route …
