Abstract

Corrosion failure accidents owing to flow erosion and pipeline corrosion frequently occur during transportation. In this study, a high wall shear stress (WSS) experimental setup was established to conduct the online electrochemical corrosion test. The corrosion behavior of welded joints in NACE solution was studied by electrochemical experimental methods such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and wire harness microelectrode (WBE). The results show that different areas of the welded joint show different corrosion phenomena in NACE solution. The weld metal (WM) has the significantly better corrosion resistance, while the base metal (BM) and heat-affected zone (HAZ) have worst corrosion resistance than WM. The current of the WM surface was cathodic current, while the current of the BM and HAZ surface were anode currents.
