Abstract
The equivalent electric circuits for determiningR p in electrolytic cells with two dissimilar electrodes are investigated. For welded joints, we suggest a relation for estimating the corrosion rate in terms ofR p and describe the design of a solion for determining this rate in a local zone of a welded joint.
