Stainless steel, polymethylmethacrylate and polytetrafluoroethylene coupons were analysed for surface topographical and adhesion force characteristics using tapping mode atomic force microscopy and force-distance microscopy techniques. The two polymer materials were surface modified by polishing with silicon carbide papers of known grade. The struvite scaling rate was determined for each coupon and related to the data gained from the surface analysis. The scaling rate correlated well with adhesion force measurements indicating that lower energy materials scale at a lower rate. The techniques outlined in the paper provide a method for the rapid screening of materials in potential scaling applications.

Data are reported on rates of sublimation mass transfer from an adiabatic, sharp-edged flat plate exposed to air streams at Mach numbers of 0.43, 2.0, and 3.5. Thickness decrease of the subliming naphthalene coating, plate surface temperature, and flow conditions were measured. An analysis of friction and heat transfer in turbulent compressible flow has been extended to mass transfer at low rates. Agreement between theory and data is good over the entire range of Reynolds numbers from 3 × 104 to 9 × 106. The effect of compressibility on mass transfer is found to be slightly greater than on friction. The measurement of the sublimation rate of thin coatings of solids provides a powerful technique of obtaining local friction coefficients, being simpler and of a wider applicability than the method involving force measurements on small floating surface elements.
