Investigation Of The Telluric Effects Arising Along The Cathodically Protected Natural Gas Pipeline Between Karadeniz Ereğli And Düzce, Bi̇lal Demi̇rel, Hayri̇ Yalçin

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Cathodic protection is one of the most widely used applications for protecting underground and submarine metallic structures from corrosion. This method is based on providing the electrons, which metallic structures lose as a result of electrolytic reaction, by the cathodic protection system. However, from time to time, it may be possible that there is some unwanted interference input into the metallic structure in such applications. This study is aimed at ascertaining the existence, arising frequency, and magnitude of an interference called the telluric effect that is going in and out of the natural gas pipeline between Düzce and Karadeniz Ereğli …
