The effects of water flow rate on copper corrosion

This study investigates the effect of water flowrate on the copper alloy corrosion by using a hydrodynamic corrosion test in operating conditions of water flow rate range between 0.05 and 3.5 m/s, the temperature range between 20 and 45 °C. Dissolved oxygen concentration was in the range between 6.1...
