The present study has been conducted to investigate the interaction between corrosion and erosion processes and to quantify the synergism in realistic flow environments, including sudden pipe constrictions, sudden pipe expansions, and protrusions. Tests were conducted on AISI 1018 carbon steel using 1% wt sodium chloride (NaCl) solution purged with CO2 as the corrosive media and silica sand as the erodent.; The experiments were designed to understand whether erosion enhances corrosion or corrosion enhances erosion and to evaluate the contribution of the individual processes to the net synergism. It was observed that erosion enhances corrosion and corrosion enhances erosion, with each contributing to significant synergism; however, the dominant process was the effect of corrosion on erosion.
