  • Corrosion and fatigue of oil well drilling steels

    Creator:
    Rozman, Kyle A.
    Abstract:
    Oil drilling requires that miles of steel drill pipe, called the drill string, be exposed to fatigue loading and corrosive environments. Furthermore, it has been reported that pitting corrosion is responsible for initiating catastrophic drillstring failure. Pitting corrosion is responsible for initiating fatigue cracks, with pits acting as local stress...

  • Corrosion Resistance of Alloys in Seawater and Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Environments

    Creator:
    Repukaiti, Reyixiati
    Abstract:
    The corrosion resistances of several alloys were investigated to optimize performance and cost in seawater and supercritical CO2 environments. Many alloys are prone to corrosion in seawater and/or supercritical CO2 containing impurity environments. Exposure and electrochemical experiments were conducted in both environments to evaluate alloys’ corrosion resistance. In seawater corrosion...

  • Corrosion of Carbon and Stainless Steels in H₂O-sCO₂ Environments for Power Cycle Applications

    Creator:
    Teeter, Lucas
    Abstract:
    The corrosion behaviors of carbon and stainless steels were investigated in supercritical CO₂ (sCO₂ ) containing H₂O and O₂ simulating conditions that exist in direct sCO₂ power cycle heat exchangers. Thermodynamic properties of CO₂-H₂O-O₂ systems related to the corrosion phenomena were determined using NIST software. The exposure tests of the...

  • Corrosion Resistance of Alloys in Direct-Fired Supercritical CO₂ Power Cycle Aqueous Environments

    Creator:
    Repukaiti, Reyixiati
    Abstract:
    Using supercritical CO₂ (sCO₂) as a working fluid has increasingly gained attention in the energy industry. sCO₂ power cycles has various advantages, such as high cycle efficiency, compact turbomachinery, and potential zero CO₂ emission. Along with these benefits, materials degradation issues have also been emphasized in the last decade. Aqueous...

  • Aqueous Corrosion and High Temperature Oxidation in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Environments

    Creator:
    Teeter, Lucas
    Abstract:
    The corrosion resistance of steels and nickel based alloys was investigated in supercritical CO2 (sCO2). Two types of experiments were conducted. The first set of experiments were conducted in a low temperature aqueous environment to simulate conditions that would exist in direct sCO2 power cycle low temperature heat exchangers. The...
