Abstract
Corrosion perforation in the oil-tank bottom is one of the most damaging mechanisms in oil-tanks. This paper presents a two-dimentional cellular automata model which simulates the corrosion perforation in the oil-tank bottom. According to the mechanism of metal corrosion in the oil-tank bottom, the CA model which simulates the electrochemical reactions and diffusion steps of pitting corrosion is proposed. With a series of simulation, the results show that CA is a powerful approach to model corrosion perforation in the oil-tank bottom, which could be of practical importance in predicting the security of oil-tanks.
