Course Description and Objective
- Understand the basics of electrochemistry and corrosion science
- Understand activation and concentration polarisation, and factors affecting polarisation including area, temperature, relative movement, ion concentration, oxygen concentration
- Evaluate errors in CP measurements such as contact resistance errors, voltage drop, and reference electrode errors
- Determine CP system performance, interpretation of data, and corrective action to the CP system under various fault conditions
- Introduce galvanic and impressed current CP system design system design (including the necessary mathematical calculations)
- Determine ideal protective current required for galvanic and impressed CP systems
- Perform interference tests to determine the existence of DC or AC interference, identify their source, and mitigate the effects of stray current
