Hostile Environment Lab

1. Lab Description and Capabilities

• Perform research/testing in high temperature and high pressure (HT/HP) environments
• Corrosion testing can be performed in aggressive environments of up to 300 °C and 5000 psi
• Bridge the gap between ambient and ultra-high temperature/pressure conditions

2. Deliverables

• Immersion testing
• Electrochemistry testing
• Mechanical testing

3. Major Equipment and Specific Minor Equipment

• C‐276 HP/HT Dynamic Autoclave System for testing up to 300 °C and 5000 psi, with stirring speed up to 1750 RPM. Two units: 5-Liter and 2.2 Liter
• Floor Model Constant Extension Rate Test Corrosion Fatigue (CERT/CF) Load Frame with C-276 HT/HP Vessel, with 50 KN load capacity and up to 300 °C and 5000 psi C‐276 vessel. Two units: both 3.4 Liter
• Floor Model Constant Extension Rate Test Corrosion Fatigue (CERT/CF) Load Frame for ambient temperature and ambient pressure testing. Two units: 50 KN load and 30 KN load
• 150,000 psi Proof Ring Test System (twelve units) for ambient temperature and pressure testing with gas selection and flow control panel and 12‐channel touch screen timer
