DESIGN CALCULATION
1. Area To Be Protected
Area to be-protected is calculated as follow :
A = 1t x D x L x CB

(Underground Pipe)

Where A = Area to be protected (m2)

D = Outside diameter of pipe (m)
L = Length of pipe (m)
Cb = Estimate Coating Breakdown (5% for wrapping tape)

Protective Current Requirement

The current requirement for protecting the object is calculated as follow
Ip = A x Cd x (1+ SF)
Cd= Cd30 + Cd30 x (Tp- 30) x i/10
Ip = Protective current requirement
A
= Area to be protected
Cd30 = Bare Steel Current density at 30C
i = Increment of Bare Steel Current density at temperature
Tp = Average Temperature of Pipes
Cd = Bare Steel Current density at TpC
SF= calculation safety factor
