Corrosion protection of steel in condition of the operation of new energy-saving generators - contact water heaters
The electrochemical behavior of steel in a model of contact water heating was investigated. It was shown that the increase in temperature, carbon dioxide concentration, the application of stirring lead to an increase in corrosion rate, which is not inhibited in time unlike corrosion in the water with natural CO2 content. The dependence of pH on the concentration of CO2 was established, which is the main corrosion factor.
