Theoretical Modeling of Crevice and Pitting Corrosion Processes in Relation to Corrosion of Radioactive Waste Containers
Keyword(s):
ABSTRACTA mathematical and numerical model for evaluation of crevice and pitting corrosion in radioactive waste containers is presented. The model considers mass transport, mass transfer at the metal/solution interface, and chemical speciation in the corrosion cavity. The model is compared against experimental data obtained in artificial crevices. Excellent agreement is found between modeled and experimental values for the potential. The importance of full consideration of complex ion formation in the aqueous solution is emphasized and illustrated.
