Advances in Corrosion Technology
Andre Anderko, OLI Systems, Inc.
OLI’s corrosion simulation technology has been substantially upgraded over the past two years with emphasis on the prediction of localized corrosion. The new developments include the implementation of a methodology for predicting the propagation of corrosion using deterministic extreme value statistics. The methods for predicting localized corrosion have been extended to heat-treated alloys. Also, a methodology has been established for predicting the combined effect of aggressive and inhibitive ions on localized corrosion. Work is in progress on extending the models to copper-nickel alloys.
