Abstract
The initiation of erosion and the coupled damage of erosion and corrosion on the surface of X65 pipeline steel with varying applied anodic currents were online monitored using the electrical resistance (ER) method. Results show that ER method in conjunction with anodic polarization was a highly effective approach for the investigation of the interaction effect between erosion and corrosion, which can be used to quickly and conveniently obtain the synchronously changed erosion and corrosion rates. The critical impact energy is a key parameter of sand particles to induce erosion damage on the steel surface, which can remove the flaky cementite at the edge of the pits. The threshold anodic current density that can cause a synergic effect between erosion and corrosion of X65 pipeline steel can be quantitatively fitted based on the erosion rates under varying anodic currents.
