Ultrasonic Phased Arrays for the Inspection of Thick-Section Welds
Ultrasonic phased arrays will eventually replace conventional ultrasonic methods in many nondestructive evaluation (NDE) applications. However, the transition to phased arrays is not without its pitfalls and challenges. In this report we present a summary of the advantages and limitations of phased-array ultrasonics in NDE, with specific reference to the inspection of thicksection welds. The ma...
متن کاملA Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing Technique for the Inspection of Nozzle Welds in the Nuclear Industry
Regular, in-service inspection is important to verify the integrity of welded nozzle sections in the nuclear industry. Nozzle sections are susceptible to crack growth due to thermal fatigue and stress corrosion. Early detection of cracks is therefore essential to ensure the continued safe operation of the facility. The aim of this project is to design an inspection system that is capable of red...
متن کاملUltrasonic Inspection of Pressure Vessel Construction Welds using Phased Arrays
Ultrasonic phased arrays are a new technology that offers considerable potential for inspecting construction welds. Using electronic control of the beam, phased arrays can scan, sweep, steer and focus the ultrasound. Since welds typically produce defects of known character and orientation, phased arrays can be programmed to optimize weld inspections. These inspections include standard ASME-type...
متن کاملThe Ultrasonic Phased Array Inspection Technology Used in Tubular Joint Welds of Offshore Platform Structures
Aimed at the practical requirement of tubular joint welds inspection of offshore platform structures, the ultrasonic phased array inspection algorithm for offshore platform structures is proposed in this paper, and the ultrasonic phased array inspection system for offshore platform structures is developed. The experiment of tubular joint model is performed with the ultrasonic phased array inspe...
متن کاملGroundwork for Rail Flaw Detection Using Ultrasonic Phased Array Inspection
An apparent increase in the detectability of certain flaws results when the ultrasonic inspection beam was oriented off the longitudinal axis of railroad rail. Here, artificial reflectors were used to better define the extent of material "seen" by inspection beams, and determine how surface curvature might affect the inspection. Presumably, such information could be useful for suggesting optimu...
