Aqueous solution of 3 wt- NaCl saturated with CO2 at atmospheric pressure was employed. Effect of temperature gradient in the formation of condensation and its rate was investigated. API 5L Grade X65 carbon steel material was used as the working electrode for the experiment. The condensation rate was measured for the temperature gradient of 20°C, 30°C and 50°C under atmospheric condition for 24 h duration of the experiment. The corrosion rate of the specimens was measured using weight loss and Linear Polarisation Resistance (LPR) techniques. The LPR probe was immersed in the collected condensed water from the experiment to calculate the corrosion rate. The measured corrosion rate from the weight loss technique was in agreement with the corrosion rate measured from LPR. The corrosion rate measurement was repeated with the addition of 1000 ppm of pH modifying agent. This study indicates that the corrosion rate of pipeline and piping when subject to temperature gradient of 50°C and above is very high and alarming. © 2018, © 2018 Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining Published by Taylor & Francis on behalf of the Institute. date: 2018 publisher: Taylor and Francis Ltd. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85049874800&doi=10.1080%2f1478422X.2018.1499169&partnerID=40&md5=28df1bbc2d340c8e85dee24c6e144d43 id_number: 10.1080/1478422X.2018.1499169 full_text_status: none publication: Corrosion Engineering Science and Technology volume: 53 number: 6 pagerange: 444-448 refereed: TRUE issn: 1478422X citation: Rozi, F. and Mohebbi, H. and Ismail, M.C. and Kakooei, S. and Ahmadi, M. and Aghasadeghi, A. and Aghasadeghi, A.
