The article deals with the influence of heat flux on localised forms of corrosion of stainless steels under the conditions of phase transition on a metal surface. The observations focused on the influence of the initiation and propagation of pitting corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. Pitting corrosion was tested in the environment of 0.6% FeCl 3 + 0.3% EDTA + 0.1% HCl, the susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking was verified in 35% MgCl 2 . The tests proved a negative influence of heat flux on the initiation and propagation of non‐uniform corrosion.
