Abstract

Abstract The article presents an innovative method of corrosion tests using the acoustic emission method and the corrosion tester. The problem of corrosion occurring in ballast tanks and tanks carrying petroleum products is discussed. The acoustic method is presented which, due to the use of a unique corrosion tester, is used to monitor the course of corrosion processes in steel. The principle of operation of the corrosion tester, its construction and its use in Non Destructive Testing (NDT) are described in detail. Corrosion test results, obtained with the use of a corrosion tester, are presented. An analysis and a short discussion of the obtained results are given. The results of both the acoustic and metallographic tests prove the possibility of detecting material damage occurring during the operation of the corrosion tester, allowing determination of the course and type of corrosion damage.
