Corrosion Principles | Power Engineering 3A

Two steel surfaces have lost the same total mass. Moving diagrams, worked examples and separate practice answers for Third Class learners. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN • Explain galvanic, atmospheric, stray-current, microbiological, stress-corrosion and hydrogen-related attack, including sulphide and chloride cracking. • Explain caustic attack, hydrogen damage and pitting on boiler waterside surfaces. • Relate fluid velocity, chemistry, temperature, oxygen, area ratio, microorganisms and dissolved species to corrosion behaviour. • Explain adsorbed-film, passivating, cathodic-precipitation and neutralizing inhibitor mechanisms. • Describe galvanic and impressed-current cathodic protection, anodes and groundbed arrangements. • Explain the information and limitations of coupons, resistance, galvanic and hydrogen probes. • Describe corrosion inspection using visual evidence, surface methods, ultrasonics and radiography. CHAPTERS 0:00 A small pit can matter more than average rust 0:42 A corrosion cell needs connected paths 10:59 Cooling-water systems combine several drivers 17:20 Worked average coupon penetration rate 18:11 Practice a coupon result without hiding its limitation 18:51 Answer: one hundredth millimetre average loss 24:16 Ultrasound uses travel time through the metal 25:51 Do not turn a trend into a guarantee 26:40 Retrieve the full circuit and the evidence 27:19 Manage corrosion through mechanism and verification HOW TO STUDY Watch the mechanism. Explain the example aloud. Pause for practice. Recall the answers tomorrow.
