Abstract
The thermal storage tank in a district heating system is a component that stores excess heat during normal operation and releases the stored heat to increase the efficiency of the system, when the heat source is stopped or additional demands occur. Recently, an obsolete thermal storage tank was dismantled for..... More

Abstract
This research focused on the development of the part unit evaluation for an organic coated automotive lower arm using the electrochemical cyclic corrosion test (E-CCT). The E-CCT accelerates both the coating degradation and the perforation corrosion. The applied potential for the coating degradation was determined to be -500 mV_SCE for..... More

Abstract
In this paper, the influence of mixed-type (impressed-current and sacrificial-anode) cathodic protection on an underwater electromagnetic field was investigated using the boundary element method. The current applied for cathodic protection was reduced by installing sacrificial anodes in the stern region. Also, the potential difference produced by the propeller in the..... More

Abstract
The effects of the temperature and flow velocity on the cathodic protection and underwater electromagnetic signature of ships are investigated using electrochemical tests and boundary element simulations. The corrosion resistance of the materials for the hull and propeller increase at lower temperatures, and the corrosion resistance is significantly decreased under..... More
