Cathodic Protection Calculation for Pipeline is important section for steel construction to protect from corrosion. This is performed in engineering period. The calculation explains about how the cathodic protection will work to protect your asset from corrosion for stated time period.
Cathodic Protection Calculation
The first thing you need to determine when calculate cathodic protection for pipeline is its cross-sectional area. In case for pipeline we can do it as:
After we get the cross-sectional area, now we need the area required for protection.
We calculate the required current using this formula:
Consumption rate
Total Anode Weight
Total Amount of Anode
