Electrolysis bath device for simulating corrosion electrochemistry measurement under heat exchange effect
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of corrosion research of heat exchange tubes, in particular to an electrolytic cell device for simulating corrosion electrochemistry measurement under the action of heat exchange.
Background
The heat exchange tube is a core component of heat exchange devices such as air conditioners, condensers and the like, and has high corrosion safety requirements. During operation, because media with different temperatures on two sides of the heat exchange tube exchange heat through the heat exchange tube, the corrosion risk is large. From the corrosion influence factor, the heat exchange tube is not only subjected to electrochemical corrosion of corrosive media (such as cooling seawater) during service, but also has a heat exchange effect at a material interface, and the heat exchange process has an important influence on the electrochemical corrosion process of the heat exchange tube material, and is a non-negligible environmental factor in the research of the corrosion mechanism of the heat exchange tube.
At present, the corrosion research of the heat exchange tube mainly adopts an electrochemical test method. Conventional electrochemical corrosion measurements typically employ three-electrode system cells, but conventional cells do not achieve the corrosion measurement requirements under heat exchange conditions for corrosive electrochemical processes with heat exchange processes. The heat exchange at the interface has certain influence on the interface corrosion process, and when electrochemical measurements such as a potentiodynamic polarization curve, zero resistance current, an impedance spectrum and the like are carried out by adopting the traditional electrolytic cell device at present, because of no heat exchange environment, the measured data has larger deviation with the actual process, the corrosion mechanism and the corrosion trend of the actual heat exchange tube can not be reflected, and the larger defect exists.
