Abstract

Abstract To reveal the corrosion behavior of an alternately wetted steel surface in oil/water media, an apparatus that could freely tune the alternate wetting period and the rotating rate was designed to acquire electrochemical signals of the steel using a rotating disk system. It was found that a lower rotating rate and a shorter wetting period resulted in less current fluctuations and hence more effective mitigation of steel dissolution. With increasing oil viscosity, a sharp decrease in the dissolution mitigate efficiency was observed, which could be attributed to the dynamic wetting and the local turbulence near the steel surface.
