An EMAT System for Detecting Flaws in Steam Generator Tubes
The detection of flaws in steam generator tubing is often made difficult by environmental considerations. The small diameter, 7/8 inch (2.2 cm), long, 70 feet (21.3m), tubes occur in large bundles with access only being possible from the inside of the end of each tube. Furthermore, inspection must be fully automatic when the steam generator is part of a nuclear power plant because of radiation ...
متن کاملAutomated analysis of rotating probe multi-frequency eddy current data from steam generator tubes
An algorithm is presented for the automated analysis of rotating probe multifrequency eddy current data obtained from nuclear power plant steam generator tubes (SGT). The algorithm consists of four steps, namely, a preprocessing stage for conditioning the data, a decision tree based feature extraction stage for identifying relevant features for analysis, a neural network based classification st...
متن کاملA MEMS Steam Generator
Previous work [1] has shown that MEMS technology has significant potential to create more compact, higherperforming hardware for chemical oxygen iodine lasers (COIL). In COILs, the laser medium is a flowing gas that must be pumped through the system at high mass flow rates to ensure proper system operation. As a result, compact pumps with high pumping rates are a key element of the COIL system....
متن کاملA Bayesian Probabilistic Approach to Improved Health Management of Steam Generator Tubes
Steam generator tube integrity is critical for the safety and operability of pressurized water reactors. Any degradation and rupture of tubes can have catastrophic consequences, e.g., release of radioactivity into the atmosphere. Given the risk significance of steam generator tube ruptures, it is necessary to periodically inspect the tubes using nondestructive evaluation methods to detect and c...
متن کاملSimulating Porous Magnetite Layer Deposited on Alloy 690TT Steam Generator Tubes
In nuclear power plants, the main corrosion product that is deposited on the outside of steam generator tubes is porous magnetite. The objective of this study was to simulate porous magnetite that is deposited on thermally treated (TT) Alloy 690 steam generator tubes. A magnetite layer was electrodeposited on an Alloy 690TT substrate in an Fe(III)-triethanolamine solution. After electrodepositi...
