NUMERICAL SIMULATION ON TYPICAL PARTS EROSION OF THE OIL PRESSURE PIPELINE
ABSTRACT
Unscheduled shut-downs of oil pipeline caused by erosion have great negative influence on production efficiency of enterprises. In this article, a computational fluid dynamics software is applied to simulate flow in bend and sudden expansion pipe to analyze erosion distribution of inner wall under different conditions.
