specific gravity of quartz sand is about 15%. The liquid-solid
two-phase flow erosion test was carried out under the condition
of water temperature of 25℃ and liquid flow rate of 30 m/s. Each
test shall be carried out continuously for 5.5 h. In order to reduce
the test error, parallel experiments shall be carried out, and the
average value of the two results shall be taken as the final erosion
rate. After each test, replace the solution and quartz sand.
