Isocorrosion chart snapshot

 concept

  • Isocorrosion chart

Use

  • Estimate corrosion rates for an alloy
  • Select an alloy for a particular application with specific parameters

Definition

  • A plot of temperature versus electrolyte concentration, with lines depicting combination where similar corrosion rates are found

example


how to use it?
  • An application needs a temperature and concentration as depicted by point 1 in the image above.
  • We can plot it on the isocorrosion chart for that alloy and estimate the corrosion rate.
  • The design of the component and corrosion allowance can be decided accordingly.
  • A method to determine the suitability of the alloy for an application and electrolyte-temperature combination.

Video below for practical demo of the use of the chart!

What is a Corrosion Loop - PART 1 - CONCEPT

Corrosion loop is used to simplify inspection procedures in refining processes. Corrosion loop is defined as a group of components with common materials, processes, and operating parameters.  Source: Rachman, A. and Ratnayake, R.M.C. (2020), "Corrosion loop development of oil and gas piping system based on machine learning and group technology method", Journal of Quality in Maintenance Engineering, Vol. 26 No. 3, pp. 349-368. https://doi.org/10.1108/JQME-07-2018-0058 It is needed when the scenario has - 1. Complex process 2. Several variables such a materials of construction, process parameters, functions 3.
