Corrosion Behavior Analysis Of Sucker Rod For Coalbed Methane Wells In The Eastern Block Of Ordos Basin, Pang Bin, Wang Hanxiang, Lan Wenjian

Coal Geology & Exploration

In order to make clear the corrosion rule of sucker rod for coalbed methane wells in the eastern block of Ordos basin, the paper summarizes the corrosion types and corrosion intensities of the sucker rod, based on the test of produced gas, produced water, corrosion products and weight loss of sucker rod. The paper analyzes the effect of different drainage stages, coal seam and mineralization degree of water on the corrosion. The results of the research indicate that corrosion is mainly caused by CO₂ and H₂S originated from No.5 coal seam and No.11 coal seam. The corrosion …

An Experimental And Numerical Investigation Of Flow Accelerated Flibe Corrosion, David B. Weitzel

Nuclear Engineering ETDs

Renewed interest in molten salt reactor technology has brought to light the need for a better understanding of FLiBe corrosion. To this end a flowing FLiBe corrosion test loop was designed to test the flow effects of FLiBe corrosion. The loop consists of a pump, melt tank, and stainless-steel tubing assembly that heats the molten salt to high temperatures and circulates it over test specimens. The experiment has been constructed and has completed initial shakedown testing.

To support the flowing FLiBe experiment, a numerical corrosion model that couples FLiBe electrochemistry, solid metal diffusion, and mass transport was implemented. The model …
