The galvanic anodes have three kinds of Zn alloy anode, Al alloy anode and Mg alloy anode, which are widely used in cathodic protection for all metal structures in water or under ground. This paper to be used for designing of the grounding cell has reached the following conclusion as the results of an experimental study on the characteristics of such galvanic anodes for corrosion protection of pipings: 1) Zn alloy anode was the best when the specific resistance of the environment was bellow 1000 Ω.cm, and when above 1000 Ω.cm, Mg alloy anode to be used for designing of the grounding cell was the best. 2) Al alloy anode was better than Mg alloy anode for grounding cell when the specific resistance was bellow 500 Ω.cm, but the Al alloy anode in all the environments reduced the characteristics of galvanic anode to the lower grade than those of Zn alloy anode. 3) Each impressed voltage (E) of the anodes at which drainage current density (σ) begins rapidly increasing is quantitatively presented as follows: ① E sub(Zn)=log (4.9465/σsuper(0.0639))+11×10 super(-6)σsuper(0.8923i) ② E sub(Al)=log (4.9306/σsuper(0.0525))+13×10 super(-6)σsuper(0.9314i) ˚led3 E sub(Mg)= log (3.7086/σsuper(0.0988))+181×10 super(-6)σsuper(0.5406i) 4) The empirical equations between the drainage current density (i) and impressed environment are modeled as the following type. logi=g+root(n.E+r)(g,n,r; constants)
