The Role of Sulfur Species in Establishing the Corrosion Reactions in Refinery Metallurgies
DownloadSpring 2016
This thesis is focused on the studying the role that model sulfur-containing molecules have in corrosion reactions on relevant metallurgies. This was done by using a design of experiments where a number of sulfur-based compounds were reacted with various metallurgies. The 8 model sulfur compounds...

The Study of the Corrosion Behavior of Gas Nitriding Treated L80 Steel in Simulated Environment for the Slotted Liners of SAGD
DownloadSpring 2016
The oil sand in Alberta province is mainly extracted by Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) technique which employs the slotted liners as the primary sand screening system. However, the slotted liners made of L80 carbon steel suffer from severe corrosion and erosion problems in the downhole...

Thermally Sprayed Coatings as Resistive Heating Systems for Wind Turbine Blades and Airfoils
DownloadSpring 2023
Accumulation of ice on the surface of wind turbine blades and aircraft wings in cold environments causes serious issues such as decrease in performance and efficiency. Ice accretion alters the geometrical profile and aerodynamic performance of the surface and increases the weight of the original...

Fall 2011
Various pressures of compressed air were introduced into the flame spraying torch and the protective coatings of nanostructured and conventional titania (TiO2) were deposited on low carbon steel substrates. Performance of the coatings was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), hardness...
