    2.1 Influence of corrosion erosion

    Corrosion-erosion can lead to significant thinning of the most sensitive components in the most affected areas, and this can result in the risk of fluid pressure no longer being controlled if the residual thickness is less than the minimum thickness required to withstand pressure loading, or even additional loads.

    In certain situations, this has led to dramatic accidents , some of...
