Abstract

This paper reviews the fouling of heat transfer surfaces due to corrosion as a consequence of their exposure to flowing oxygenated water. The fundamental mechanisms of oxygen transport, deposit growth, and deposit removal are considered. A model for predicting the formation of a corrosion fouling deposit is derived, and the utility of dimensionless variables deduced from the model is demonstrated. The interaction of corrosion fouling and other categories of fouling is discussed. Recommendations are made for future research in this area.
