If = ΔE / R
where: ΔE — Driving voltage for aluminum anode, ΔE = 0.25 V
R — Water connection resistance of anode for slender anode, Ω

where: ρ — Resistivity of sea water, ρ = 25 Ω⋅cm
L — Length of anode, L = 30 cm
r — Radius of anode for other than cylindrical shapes, cm

where: C — Cross section perimeter
C = 11.5 + 13.5 + 14.0 × 2 = 53.0 cm
C 53.0
so: r = = = 8.44 cm (L < 4r)

If = ΔE / R1 = 0.25 / 0.2375 = 1.0526 A = 1052.6 mA

3 Useful Life t calculation

t= ⋅
Im × 8760 K
where: m — Weight of anode, m = 13.5 kg
Q — Capacity of anode, Q = 2400 A⋅h/kg
Im — Average producted current of anode, mA
Im = 0.6 × If =0.6× 1052.6 = 631.6 mA

13.5 × 2400 × 1000


so: t = × 0.85 = 4.978 ≈ 5 years
631.6 × 8760
It is satisfied with the requirement of 5 years useful life in the Specifications.

If
where: Ni — Number of anode for protected area
ij — Protective current density, according to the Shipyard’s standard,
ij = 10 mA/m2
Sj — Soggy area, m2
lf — Produced current, mA
So protected area and number of anode required for water ballast tank shall be as
follows:
