Principal parameters on
which FAC depends are
temperature, pH, oxygen
content,
and
water
velocity.
This phenomena was
identified as a result of
research
in
France,
Germany, and the United
Kingdom over the past
twenty years.
FAC and Erosion Corrosion (EC) are normally considered same which is
wrong. The differences involves the mechanism by which the protective
film is removed from the metal surface.
There is a cleared difference b/w single and double phase FAC. Singlephase FAC produces a scalloped appearance, similar to an orange peel
while Two-phase FAC produces a tiger striped or streaked appearance.
FAC rate also depend on material used, in carbon steel FAC is maximum
while it suddenly decreases according to Cr(+Mo) contents thus FAC in
carbon steel can mitigated with high Cr contents.
FAC rate decreases with increasing Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and it is due
to the hematite formation which prevent FAC more than magnetite layer
that form in common.

GAMBIT is used for meshing. Hex core mesh is used in order to lower cell
counts and improve the quality, this type is generally used for
volumes with complexity near the walls.

In order to check grid independency (GIT) two grids with different counts
are made and solved to get velocity contours when these give very less
remarkable difference grid independency proved.
Contours of wall sheer stress and absolute pressure also give an idea to
predict the location of high corrosion attack.
