is not so easy... a corrosion chart can give you some advise on what can u expect.. but you need to be sure that your conditions are the same of the corrosion chart..

Also there are other factors to be considered.. the minimum temperature.. external corrosion (atmospheric corrosion).. erosion, erosion-corrosion due to high velocitiy gas..

so.. the corrosion chat or corrosion database or isocorrosion curves gives you a first impression.. then you've to evaluate all the rest...

what's your fluid?
