The spherical drag coefficient was determined according to Morsi and Alexander [30, 39]: 2 3 1 2 Re Re D a a C a = + + , 1 a , 2 a , 3 a – constants. An additional study using Oka erosion model was conducted to estimate the influence of shape factor, which is presented in fig. 14. Fig. 13. Typical wear surface after testing Fig. 14. The effect of the “shape factor” (for Oka coefficients 90 0.004 E = , 1 0.613 n = , 2 6.439 n = , 2 2.21 k = , 3 0.19 k = )
