Figure 6.1 Current i [A] in the electrode wires and current density J [A/m ] in the tissue volume. The lines drawn in the tissue show current flow direction, the proximity of two lines is the current density magnitude, i is easily measured and known the J(x,y,z) field is difficult to...

Current density Magnitude of current per unit area of a metal surface, usually expressed in mA/ft (mA/ft or, A/m ). Current in a simple circuit n. The current in a circuit including an external resistance R and a cell of electromotive force E and internal resistance r. 

Current Density Magnitude of current per unit area of a metal surface, usually expressed in milliamper per sq ft (mA/ft or, A/m ). 

The effects of ultrasound-enlianced mass transport have been investigated by several authors [73, 74, 75 and 76]. Empirically, it was found that, in the presence of ultrasound, the limiting current for a simple reversible electrode reaction exhibits quasi-steady-state characteristics with intensities considerably higher in magnitude compared to the peak current of the response obtained under silent conditions. The current density can be... 

Further, as the current density of the fuel cell increases, a point is inevitably reached where the transport of reactants to or products from the surface of the electrode becomes limited by diffusion. A concentration polarization is estabhshed at the elec trode, which diminishes the cell operating potential. The magnitude of this effect depends on many design and operating variables, and its value must be obtained empirically. 

In choosing a protection method, the magnitude of the required protection current, which depends on the necessary protection current density, is of considerable importance. From Section 5.2.1.2 a rough estimate of the current demand can be made using Eq. (5-11 ). 

The anodic dissolution of nickel is also dependent on the amount of cold work in the metal and in the active region the anodic current density of cold worked material at a given potential is up to one order of magnitude greater than that of annealed material. 

Figure 4.34 illustrates, by means of potential/anodic current density curves, the influence of pH and Cl ions on the pitting of nickel The tendency to pit is associated with the potential at which a sudden increase in anodic current density is observed within the normally passive range ( b on Curve 1 in Fig. 4.34). It can be seen that in neutral 0-05 M Na2S04 containing 0-02m Cl" (Curve 1) has a value of approximately 0-4 V h- When pitting develops, the solution in the pits becomes acidic owing to hydrolysis of the corrosion product (see Section 1.6) and when this occurs the anodic current density increases by at least two orders of magnitude and tends to follow the curve obtained in 0 05 m H2SO4-t-0-02 m NaCl (Curve 2). Comparison of Curves 2 and 3 illustrates the influence of Cl" ions on the pitting process.

Fig. 10,54 Potentiostatic anodic polarisation curves for mild steel in 10% sulphuric acid. Note the magnitude of the critical current density which is lO -lO A/m this creates a problem in practical anodic protection since very high currents are required to exceed icu. and therefore...

A metal when immersed in a solution of its cations may take up the reversible potential corresponding with the M exchange process, but whether or not this occurs in practice will depend on the magnitude of its exchange current density in relation to any others that are possible due to other exchange processes in the solution under consideration. In oxygenated solution the and 02 0H equilibria provide possible alterna-... 

Figure 9.26 shows the steady state effect of applied current I on the induced changes, ArH2(=rH2 -r 2) and Ar0(=ro-io )> in the rates of consumption of H2 and O respectively, where the superscript o always denotes open-circuit conditions. The dashed lines in Fig. 9.26 are constant Faradaic efficiency, A, lines. The maximum measured A values are near 40 at low current densities. This value is in excellent qualitative agreement with the following approximate expression which can predict the magnitude of A in NEMCA studies ...
