The present invention provides a
corrosion rate detection device for earth-covered storage tanks after
cathodic protection, which belongs to the technical field of detection equipment for measuring electrical variables, and comprises: a tank body, a guard plate, a base, a spherical head, a
corrosion rate detection mechanism and a computing
chip, wherein bases are symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank body on both sides, spherical heads are fixedly connected to both ends of the tank body, a guide rail is symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the inner side of the guard plate, both ends of the guide rail are fixedly connected to limit plates, a
threaded rod is rotatably connected between the two limit plates, guide rods are symmetrically arranged on the outer side of the
threaded rod, a moving plate is threadedly connected to the outer side of the
threaded rod, the threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output end of a motor, the motor is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the guard plate, a
corrosion rate detection mechanism is arranged on one side of the moving plate, and the computing
chip is electrically connected to the corrosion rate detection mechanism, wherein a corrosion rate calculation module is arranged for calculating the corrosion rate according to parameters collected by the corrosion rate detection mechanism and a preset
mathematical model.
