Weld Overlay Examination Using Ultrasonic Phased Array Technology
Weld overlay of piping was first used as a method to repair components of simple configurations which were known to contain cracking. An adequate ultrasonic examination of these geometries can be achieved by using a few conventional search units. Currently the application of pre-emptive weld overlays as a mitigation technique and/or to improve the examination surface condition for more complex ...
متن کاملUltrasonic Sampling Phased Array Testing as a Replacement for X-ray Testing of Weld Joints in Ship Construction
According to European Standard EN 1712 ultrasonic testing of thin-walled welded joints is mandatory for wall thicknesses of more than 8 mm only. Any thinner components do have to undergo X-ray inspection. Besides various advantages of X-ray testing viz. high sensitivity to smallest inclusions, high acceptance in the ship building sector and “automatic” documentation of inspection results, there...
متن کاملUltrasonic Phased Array Examination of Butt-fusion Joints in High-density Polyethylene
With the increasing use of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) piping for nuclear applications, nondestructive evaluation is an important tool for evaluation of the integrity in fused joints. This paper will discuss the method of using Ultrasonic Phased Array for inspecting Butt-Fusion (BF) joints in HDPE piping. The benefit of Phased Array is the ability to perform a volumetric inspection using m...
متن کاملUltrasonic Phased Array Examination of Butt Fusion Joints of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Pipe
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) piping has been used in place of steel alloys in the petrochemical, power, and mining industries due to its exceptional resistance to corrosion and erosion. Recently, HDPE has also been used for nuclear safety-related cooling water applications. The application of nuclear quality assurance requirements creates reasonable assurance that the production fusion join...
متن کاملDefect Identification and Sizing by the Ultrasonic Satellite-Pulse Technique
Type and size are the most important defect characteristics that need to be determined for reliable prediction of the remaining service lifetime of a defective structure or part. The analytical and supporting experimental results presented in this paper concern a universal ultrasonic defect-identificationandsubsequent-sizing method. The conceived satellite-pulse technique (SPT) is based on the ...
