Conclusions
-
1.
Cathodic corrosion protection of metallic elements of hydraulic structures has in recent years been extensively used; until recently, one of the drawbacks of cathodic protection has been the lack of methods of mathematical analysis.
-
2.
At the B. E. Vedeveev All-Union Scientific-Research Institute of Hydraulic Engineering, we have developed a method of calculating the parameters of cathodic protection hydroelectric stations metal structures, based on the solution of problems in the electric-field theory and taking account of the principal operational conditions of the structure.
-
3.
The author suggests a model for calculating the parameters of cathodic protection of metal structures, the surfaces of which can be approximated by a plane (sluice gates, grids, sheet-pile walls, and diaphragms); calculations and nomograms are presented for determining the cathodic protection parameters under a wide range of operating conditions.
