Quantitative Evaluation of Corrosion Degrees of Steel Bars Based on Self-Magnetic Flux Leakage
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Material Preparation
- (1)
- There is a potential difference on the surface of the steel bar to form a corroded battery;
- (2)
- The passivation film on the surface of the steel bar is destroyed and is in an activated state;
- (3)
- Water and oxygen required for electrochemical reaction and ion diffusion are on the surface of the steel bar.
2.2. Mathematical Model
3. Results & Discussion
3.1. Experimental Result of Corrosion and SMFL Signals
3.2. Quantitative Evaluation of SMFL for Steel Corrosion
4. Conclusions
- (1)
- Experimental results for samples suggested that the SMFL signals at different angles of a certain steel bar were almost the same. Based on the magnetic dipole model, the SMFL field of a V-shaped defect can be represented. According to the BZ component curves drawn by the experimental results, it was clear that the curves are different from the fluctuation of the uncorroded steel bar in the corrosion range. Therefore, corrosion was a major factor causing the change in BZ curves.
- (2)
- SMFL is susceptible to magnetization history and initial magnetization state. In order to study the change of the SMFL signal separately, the geomagnetic field and the magnetic field of the steel bars were removed. It can be clearly seen that the curve gradient of BZ in the corrosion region increases as the degree of corrosion increases. This observation supported the hypothesis that the variation gradient of the BZ curve in the corroded region is related to the corrosion degree. An index “K” was introduced to estimate corrosion degree of steel bar. The index “K” was not affected by the magnetization history and the initial magnetization state. Finally, a SMFL-based quantitative analysis model for steel corrosion degree was established.
