Solutions to cavitation in 316L containers
Thread Content
There is severe cavitation at the inlet of a 316L vessel (at the nozzles and the area facing the cylinder). If a new vessel is built, would lining it with Hastelloy solve the problem?
Try using 800H or duplex steel
What are the reasons for recommending these two materials? What kind of steel is 800H?
Both of these steels are corrosion-resistant, especially resistant to chloride ion corrosion. 800H is an alloy steel; you can look up more details online.
OP, please send us a few photos of cavitation so we can learn*learn* and gain some insight. Thank you!
Cavitation? No material will work~~~~ Addressing the root cause of cavitation is the proper approach~~~~
Replace with cavitation-resistant material to increase the cavitation margin
What medium? The process parameters should be adjusted to ensure reasonable pressure and temperature of the medium entering the tank, thereby eliminating vaporization.
