Corrosion in Sprinkler Pipe – Not One but Many Problems
نویسنده
چکیده
The occurence of corrosion is a potentially major problem for all sprinkler systems. It could cause a problem for the operational reliability as well as for the performance reliablity. It is of course negative for the operational reliability if corrosion causes plugged piping, clogging of control valves or simply non-opening sprinkler heads. All of which may well be the effect of uncontrolled corrosion. But an even larger impact on the performance reliability will probably be the effects of discovered corrosion and the maintenance process following this discovery. A sprinkler system taken out of work will have a very poor performance record.

متن کاملIX. INHIBITOR EFFECTIVENESS ON CO2 CORROSION WITH SAND Introduction Erosion, corrosion, and erosion-corrosion are common problems in offshore
Erosion, corrosion, and erosion-corrosion are common problems in offshore pipelines, tubing and pipe fittings. Corrosion has an important impact on the total cost of oil and gas production. Considering the diversity of corrosion related problems, CO2 corrosion (sweet corrosion) is probably the material degradation mechanism most extensively assessed in this industry over the last 30 years. In t...
متن کاملComparison of Water Distribution Characteristics for Two Kinds of Sprinklers Used for Center Pivot Irrigation Systems
Sprinkler selection influences the water distribution uniformity of center pivot irrigation systems. The sprinkling uniformity of the center pivot is crucial for the yield and quality of crops on a large scale. Rotating and fixed spray plate sprinklers (RSPSs and FSPSs) are the two most popular types. However, sprinkler selection is mainly based on price, not on differences in performance betwe...
