Abstract
Analysis of peculiarities of corrosion processes was made in carbon steel and its welded joints in cooling liquids of TOSOL type used in cooling systems of automobile gas-filling compressor stations (AGFCS). A method of monitoring the instant rate of corrosion in metal of pipes and welded joints in the cooling system at AGFCS, based on the method of polarization resistance, is offered. Sensors have been developed for estimation of corrosion rate in carbon steel and its welded joints in cooling liquid.
