Abstract
A system of differential equations solvable in a standard mathematical Mathcad PLUS 6.0 package and applicable to galvanic cathodic protecti on with a porous anode is derived. The system describes the overpotent ial, the total overall current density, and their distribution along t he pores of the anode as the functions of the porosity characteristics , which are determined by methods of quantitative metallography. Theor etical solutions are confirmed experimentally.
