- 1Input two metals and galvanic series position
- 2Calculate galvanic potential
- 3Determine which metal corrodes and rate
Worked Examples
Инпут
Zinc (anode) + steel (cathode) in seawater
Резултат
Zinc sacrificially corrodes, protecting steel (intentional use)
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✕Assuming only one metal corrodes (wrong)
- ✕Not understanding sacrificial anode concept
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you prevent galvanic corrosion?
Use same metal, isolate with non-conductive gasket, or apply protective coating.
