Abstract
The properties of the erodent, namely, size, shape, hardness, density, etc. have dominant effect on mass removal from the target material surface in slurry erosion. The area of contact of the erodent particle mainly depends on its size and shape. This further leads to variation in the stress development at the target surface due to particle impact. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the effect of area of contact and stress concentration on the target surface due to different particles shapes and sizes. In view of this, in the present investigation AA6063 is selected as target material with three natural erodents, namely, quartz, SiC and alumina. The area of contact of impacting particle with target material surface is calculated by using Hertz contact stress theory and further determined by using ANSYS for similar conditions
