Abstract
Estimation of void formation in oxide scale is important for predicting exfoliation of the oxide scale. Void formation in magnetite scale formed on iron at 823 K has been elucidated by chemical potential distribution, flux of oxide ion and its divergence. This calculation also estimates a effective diffusion coefficient, which includes both lattice diffusion and grain boundary diffusion in magnetite scale. The resulting effective diffusion coefficients give the quantitative elucidation of the morphology of the magnetite scale. The divergence of oxide ion explains well a position and an amount of void in magnetite scale.
