Developed software for cathodic protection of storage tanks

Cathodic protection is one of the commonly used techniques to control the corrosion of a metal surface by making the protected metal as a cathode of an electromechanical cell. The main issue of this paper is studying the cathodic protection system of storage tanks to develop a software program, which can be used in designing such a system. This developed software program won´t depend only on the criterion of the total required weight of the anodes, but it will also make a check on the required current for the cathodic protection system to cover the current demand for the system. This software is a general one which can be used for any cylindrical storage tank.
