High Temperature Corrosion (20)
The oxygen distribution during double sided corrosion at high temperature is shown in the Figure below from the notes. An approximation of this curve is shown below. Using the approximate curve, and assuming 26wt% is the hydrogen content in the ZrO2 oxide, what is the equivalent cladding reacted (ECR) in this case? Is it above 17%?
