PACER LIME: An Environmental Corrosion Severity Classification System. Part 1

Abstract

A system has been developed for rating the corrosivity of aircraft operational environments. This system takes account of weather, atmospheric pollutant, and geographical factors to compute a severity index for three aspects of corrosion maintenance: aircraft washing, repainting, and repair needs. Computed ratings are in good agreement with aircraft corrosion experience and atmospheric testing programs at several locations.
