Scope1.1 This test method covers the production of cavitationdamage on the face of a specimen vibrated at high frequencywhile immersed in a liquid. The vibra
3、tion induces the forma-tion and collapse of cavities in the liquid, and the collapsingcavities produce the damage to and erosion (material loss) ofthe specimen.1.2 Although the mechanism for generating fluid cavitationin this method differs from that occurring in flowing systemsand hydraulic machine
4、s (see 5.1), the nature of the materialdamage mechanism is believed to be basically similar. Themethod therefore offers a small-scale, relatively simple andcontrollable test that can be used to compare the cavitationerosion resistance of different materials, to study in detail thenature and progress

17、d States.3.1.3.2 DiscussionThe term cavitation, by itself, shouldnot be used to denote the damage or erosion of a solid surfacethat can be caused by it; this effect of cavitation is termedcavitation damage or cavitation erosion. To erode a solidsurface, bubbles or cavities must collapse on or near t
18、hatsurface.3.1.4 cavitation erosion, nprogressive loss of originalmaterial from a solid surface due to continued exposure tocavitation.3.1.5 cumulative erosion, nthe total amount of materiallost from a solid surface during all exposure periods since itwas first exposed to cavitation or impingement a
19、s a newlyfinished surface. (More specific terms that may be used arecumulative mass loss, cumulative volume loss,orcumulativemean depth of erosion. See also cumulative erosion-timecurve.)3.1.5.1 DiscussionUnless otherwise indicated by the con-text, it is implied that the conditions of cavitation or
20、impinge-ment have remained the same throughout all exposure periods,with no intermediate refinishing of the surface.3.1.6 cumulative erosion rate, nthe cumulative erosion ata specified point in an erosion test divided by the correspond-ing cumulative exposure duration; that is, the slope of a linefr

(Synonym: average erosion rate)3.1.7 cumulative erosion-time curvea plot of cumulativeerosion versus cumulative exposure duration, usually deter-mined by periodic interruption of the test and weighing of thespecimen. This is t
22、he primary record of an erosion test. Mostother characteristics, such as the incubation period, maximumerosion rate, terminal erosion rate, and erosion rate-time curve,are derived from it.3.1.8 erosion rate-time curve, na plot of instantaneouserosion rate versus exposure duration, usually obtained b
23、ynumerical or graphical differentiation of the cumulativeerosion-time curve. (See also erosion rate-time pattern.)3.1.9 erosion rate-time pattern, nany qualitative descrip-tion of the shape of the erosion rate-time curve in terms of theseveral stages of which it may be composed.3.1.9.1 DiscussionIn
24、cavitation and liquid impingementerosion, a typical pattern may be composed of all or some ofthe following “periods” or “stages”: incubation period, accel-eration period, maximum-rate period, deceleration period,terminal period, and occasionally catastrophic period. Thegeneric term “period” is recom
25、mended when associated withquantitative measures of its duration, etc.; for purely qualitativedescriptions the term“ stage” is preferred.3.1.10 erosion threshold time, nthe exposure time re-quired to reach a mean depth of erosion of 1.0 m.3.1.10.1 DiscussionA mean depth of erosion of 1.0 m isthe lea

27、rough aconstriction.3.1.12 incubation period, nthe initial stage of the erosionrate-time pattern during which the erosion rate is zero ornegligible compared to later stages.3.1.12.1 DiscussionThe incubation period is usuallythought to represent the accumulation of plastic deformationand internal str
28、esses under the surface, that precedes significantmaterial loss. There is no exact measure of the duration of theincubation period. See related terms, erosion threshold timeand nominal incubation period.3.1.13 maximum erosion rate, nthe maximum instanta-neous erosion rate in a test that exhibits suc
29、h a maximumfollowed by decreasing erosion rates. (See also erosion rate-time pattern.)3.1.13.1 DiscussionOccurrence of such a maximum istypical of many cavitation and liquid impingement tests. Insome instances it occurs as an instantaneous maximum, inothers as a steady-state maximum which persists f
30、or sometime.3.1.14 mean depth of erosion (MDE), nthe average thick-ness of material eroded from a specified surface area, usuallycalculated by dividing the measured mass loss by the density ofthe material to obtain the volume loss and dividing that by thearea of the specified surface. (Also known as
31、 mean depth ofpenetration or MDP. Since that might be taken to denote theaverage value of the depths of individual pits, it is a lesspreferred term.)3.1.15 nominal incubation time, nthe intercept on thetime or exposure axis of the straight-line extension of themaximum-slope portion of the cumulative
32、 erosion-time curve;while this is not a true measure of the incubation stage, itserves to locate the maximum erosion rate line on the cumu-lative erosion versus time coordinates.3.1.16 normalized erosion resistance, Ne, na measure ofthe erosion resistance of a test material relative to that of aspec
33、ified reference material, calculated by dividing the volumeloss rate of the reference material by that of the test material,when both are similarly tested and similarly analyzed. By“similarly analyzed” is meant that the two erosion rates mustbe determined for corresponding portions of the erosion ra

36、hrough the origin and tangent to the knee of thecumulative erosion-time curve, when that curve has the char-acteristic S-shaped pattern that permits this. In such cases, thetangent erosion rate also represents the maximum cumulativeerosion rate exhibited during the test.G321023.1.19 terminal erosion

38、ithin a liquid, induced by the vibrationof a solid surface immersed in the liquid.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method generally utilizes a commerciallyobtained 20-kHz ultrasonic transducer to which is attached asuitably designed “horn” or velocity transformer. A specimenbutton of proper ma
39、ss is attached by threading into the tip ofthe horn.4.2 The specimen is immersed into a container of the testliquid (generally distilled water) that must be maintained at aspecified temperature during test operation, while the specimenis vibrated at a specified amplitude. The amplitude andfrequency
40、of vibration of the test specimen must be accuratelycontrolled and monitored.4.3 The test specimen is weighed accurately before testingbegins and again during periodic interruptions of the test, inorder to obtain a history of mass loss versus time (which is notlinear). Appropriate interpretation of
41、this cumulative erosion-versus-time curve permits comparison of results betweendifferent materials or between different test fluids or otherconditions.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method may be used to estimate the relativeresistance of materials to cavitation erosion as may be encoun-tered,
42、 for instance, in pumps, hydraulic turbines, hydraulicdynamometers, valves, bearings, diesel engine cylinder liners,ship propellers, hydrofoils, and in internal flow passages withobstructions.An alternative method for similar purposes is TestMethod G134, which employs a cavitating liquid jet to prod
43、uceerosion on a stationary specimen. The latter may be moresuitable for materials not readily formed into a preciselyshaped specimen. The results of either, or any, cavitationerosion test should be used with caution; see 5.8.5.2 Some investigators have also used this test method as ascreening test f
44、or materials subjected to liquid impingementerosion as encountered, for instance, in low-pressure steamturbines and in aircraft, missiles or spacecraft flying throughrainstorms. Test Method G73 describes another testing ap-proach specifically intended for that type of environment.5.3 This test metho
45、d is not recommended for evaluatingelastomeric or compliant coatings, some of which have beensuccessfully used for protection against cavitation or liquidimpingement of moderate intensity. This is because the com-pliance of the coating on the specimen may reduce the severityof the liquid cavitation
46、induced by its vibratory motion. Theresult would not be representative of a field application, wherethe hydrodynamic generation of cavitation is independent ofthe coating.NOTE 1An alternative approach that uses the same basic apparatus,and is deemed suitable for compliant coatings, is the “stationar
47、y speci-men” method. In that method, the specimen is fixed within the liquidcontainer, and the vibrating tip of the horn is placed in close proximity toit. The cavitation “bubbles” induced by the horn (usually fitted with ahighly resistant replaceable tip) act on the specimen. While severalinvestiga
48、tors have used this approach (see X4.2.3), they have differed withregard to standoff distances and other arrangements. The stationaryspecimen approach can also be used for brittle materials which can not beformed into a threaded specimen nor into a disc that can be cemented toa threaded specimen, as
49、 required for this test method (see 7.6).5.4 This test method should not be directly used to rankmaterials for applications where electrochemical corrosion orsolid particle impingement plays a major role. However,adaptations of the basic method and apparatus have been usedfor such purposes (see 9.2.5, 9.2.6, and X4.2). Guide G119may be followed in order to determine the synergism betweenthe mechanical and electrochemical effects.5.5 Those who are engaged in basic research, or concernedwith very specialized applications, may need to vary some ofthe test
