Sinopsis

Potential Theory Applied to Cathodic Protection Designáprovides the mathematicaládevelopment of analytical equations for the design of cathodic protection (CP)ásystems for underground structures with anode groundbeds havinge various configurations. Equations include calculations for the resistance and voltage (potential) and will assist the CP design engineer.All the previous references on this subject matter (including NACE CP courses)áutilize equations developed almost a century ago by Sunde and Dwight for electricalágrounding systems. This book also has a methodological approach, showingádetailed developments and practical examples to the equations.The book is unique in the presentation of the theory that justifies the developmentáof equations to design and simulate CP systems. The book provides theámethodology to develop new equations with more specific uses, if required.The firstáedition ofáPotential Theory Applied to Cathodic Protection Designáshowcased the mathematicaládevelopment of analytical equations for the design of cathodic protection (CP)ásystems for underground structures with anode groundbeds having various configurations. Equations included calculations for the resistance and voltage (potential)áto assist the CP design engineer.áThis second edition has several important changes including updates on integral and analytic solutions for horizontal anodes in the same trench, an approach that was insufficiently developed in the first edition.Other updates include:âÇóGeneralization of groundbed resistance combining the equation for anodes with different length and depth, with the equation for different distance between anodes.áâÇóCalculation of anodeâÇÖs current in a groundbed, based on the crowding factor.áâÇóGeneralization of groundbed resistance combining the equation for anodes with different length and depth, with the equation for different distance between anodes.áâÇóCalculation of anodeâÇÖs current in a groundbed, based on the crowding factor.áâÇóBy means of the use of integral formulations, particularizes the use of the APM for any combination of underground anode systems.
