The consequences of the inappropriate use of ventilation systems operating in indoor swimming pool conditions - analysis
Increasingly more leisure facilities, such as water parks or indoor swimming pools are being built in Poland nowadays. In order to ensure the air quality required by standards for such leisure facilities it is necessary to fit them with effectively functioning ventilation. For the removal of excess humidity, as well as chlorine ions occurring as a result of the disinfection of water as well as the carbon dioxide emitted by people using the facility, the ventilation system needs to be appropriately designed and efficient. For this reason, studies into the air quality in such facilities were undertaken. The paper presents the causes and consequences of the inappropriate operation and maintena…
Effects of hydrogen-charging on the properties of S235JR steel
The paper presents the test results of the S235JR steel susceptibility to damage under the influence of hydrogen. The test of mechanical properties was performed on the basis of a static stretch test of non-hydrogenated samples and after cathodic polarization. Electrochemical measurements for the assessment of corrosion resistance of non-hydrogenated and hydrogenated steels were carried out using open circuit potential measurement and registering of potentiodynamic polarization curves in a three-electrode measuring system. Hydrogenation was carried out for between 3 and 24 hours in a solution of 0.1 N sulfuric acid (VI) with the addition of 2 mg/dm 3 of arsenic oxide (III) at an electric cu…
Comparison of resistance to damage of unalloyed carbon steels under the influence of hydrogen
One of the most commonly used construction material in industry is unalloyed steel S235 and S355. These types of steel are used for construction of ships, bridges, coastal construction, welded tanks, and in buildings. Due to the operating conditions, these types of steel may undergo hydrogen degradation in the process of manufacturing of welded structures or when operating the structures. This paper presents the results of study into resistance of selected types of non-alloy structural steels to hydrogen degradation. Tests were carried out to determine changes in mechanical properties in the static trials of stretching without hydrogen, and after saturation with hydrogen. Parallel fractogra…
The influence of hydrogen on the electrochemical properties of selected types of stainless steel=Wpływ wodoru na właściwości elektrochemiczne wybranych gatunków stali nierdzewnych
Abstract The paper presents the results of the influence of electrolytic hydrogenation on the change of electrochemical properties of selected stainless steels and their susceptibility to the formation of galvanic hydrogen. It has been shown that the electrolytic hydrogenation of steel X5CrNi18-10 and X6Cr17 in the state of delivery, not only changes their corrosion resistance, but also contributes to the formation of galvanic hydrogen cells.
