Study of internal corrosion on the turning angles in steel pipes

Abstract

Corrosive damages can lead to accidents on pipelines in various industries. Therefore, the main objective of the work is to study the peculiarities of propagation of internal corrosion on turning angles in steel pipes. The paper substantiates the primary importance of the propagation of corrosion on turning angles in steel pipes. It has been identified that in curvilinear areas, the rate of corrosion propagation depends on the rate of fluid flow, on the number of ions, and also on the effect of centrifugal force. The authors studied the average rate of corrosion propagation on the turns in steel pipes. Thus, the results obtained showed that the location of steel pipes affect the rate of corrosion propagation inside the pipes.
