A Method for Extrapolating ISO9223 Response Functions

Estimating corrosion growth rate is a non-linear multi-dimensional (space and time) challenge. Above-ground outdoor assets are affected by natural atmospheric factors such as climate salinity and human factors such as pollution. ISO9223 provides guidance including response functions and a classification schema (C1 thru C5) for estimating corrosion risk as a function of three variables: weather (temperature and humidity) dry deposition of sulfides and dry deposition of chlorides. Climate data is widely available but dry deposition data is either not available or very expensive to collect requiring laboratory methods. Fortunately wet deposition data for chlorides and sulfides are available and accurately reported. In this paper a method for estimating ISO9223 compliant dry deposition data using wet deposition data and other climate-based factors is presented.An approach to extrapolate all ISO9223 inputs for any location in North America using GIS algorithms is also demonstrated. This method usesinverse distance weighted (IDW) techniqueto build estimates of parameters based on geospatial interpolation and linear models for estimation of atmospheric conditions. This provides the ability to estimate ISO9223 classification schema for any latitude and longitude pairs in North America leveraging the ISO9223 methodology using more widely available data. The potential benefits are significant from optimization of coating selections and maintenance schedules to construction considerations. As a case study the model was applied for a North American pipeline operator to develop an atmospheric corrosivity map of their assets. Future work includes direct collection of on-site growth rate data and improved ISO9223 response functions incorporating additional variables such as electromagnetic interference and NO-based pollution sources.
