Abstract

Theoretical analyses of potential/current distribution in cathodic protection system with complex boundary conditions have rarely been discussed in detail because of the difficulty of mathematical treatment. By electroconductive paper method, despite the limited application to 2-dimensional, Laplace equation solution can be derived, since the boundary conditions can be represented graphically on electroconductive papers. By using this, potential/current distribution with complex boundary conditions can be estimated relatively easily. The application of the electroconductive paper method to the actual system have been demonstrated for the application of cathodic protection of steel piles in seawater and internal surface of stainless steel tank for hot water reservoir. A fairly good agreement was observed between the measured values and those obtained by electroconductive paper method which indicates the effectiveness of the electroconductive paper method for the estimation of potential/current distribution.
