Empirical Modelling of Metal Corrosion in Loamy Soil and Saltwater Environment
Abstract
The corrosion rate of metal in loamy soil and saltwater environment was monitored, predicted, and simulated using empirical modeling. The metal under investigation is carbon steel, which is found in a loamy soil and saltwater environments. The carbon steel sample immersed in a saltwater medium exhibited a higher corrosion rate compared to the loamy soil sample. The rise in corrosion of carbon steel can be attributed to the physiochemical characteristics of the saltwater medium. The study employed the empirical model of power concept and employed a comparative analysis between the acquired results and both experimental data and the verified outcome. This study demonstrates the efficacy of power models in monitoring, predicting, and simulating the corrosion of carbon steel in loamy soil and saltwater environments.
