Cathodic Protection of Internals of Ships

Optimization of the cathodic protection system of military ships with respect to the double constraint: cathodic protection and electromagnetic silencing

In ships, materials of different electrochemical potentials the steel of the hull and the bronze of the propellers coexist. Once bathed in the sea water and electrically connected by the internal structures, phenomena of corrosion induced by galvanic coupling appear. These phenomena create currents in the water around the ship and induce, in the conducting sea water, a static electric field cal...

Optimization of Cathodic Protection on Offshore Structures

Marine structures are one of the most important and susceptible facilities in Iran due to corrosion. The two methods of Cathodic Protection, namely, the cathodic protection with sacrificial anodes and cathodic protection using impressed current, are widely used for corrosion protection. According to the former, sacrificial anodes are installed at several points in the structure. Position of the...
