Application of Lorentz force eddy current testing and eddy current testing on moving nonmagnetic conductors
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lorentz force eddy current testing is a novel nondestructive testing technique which can be applied preferably to the identification of internal defects in non-ferromagnetic moving conductors. This paper describes the comparison of this new technique with well-known eddy current testing. Measurements and numerical simulations have been done for both techniques for artificial subsurface defects in a test specimen made of Aluminum alloy moving with constant velocity.

Design of Nondestructive System for Hardness of Carbonitrided Steel Parts Using Eddy Current Testing Method: Case study on the Tappet Parts
In this paper, a non-destructive eddy current test system was designed to evaluate the surface hardness of the carbonitrided steel parts. For this purpose, various samples of the tappet were used after the surface hardening and grinding operations as control samples and, if necessary, were subjected to destructive and non-destructive tests. Microstructural studies were performed with a microsco...
متن کاملGiant Magnetoresistance Sensors: A Review on Structures and Non-Destructive Eddy Current Testing Applications
Non-destructive eddy current testing (ECT) is widely used to examine structural defects in ferromagnetic pipe in the oil and gas industry. Implementation of giant magnetoresistance (GMR) sensors as magnetic field sensors to detect the changes of magnetic field continuity have increased the sensitivity of eddy current techniques in detecting the material defect profile. However, not many researc...
متن کاملExperimental investigation of the transient phase of the Lorentz force response to the time- dependent velocity at finite magnetic Reynolds number
The working principle of Lorentz force velocimetry (LFV) is based on a linear dependence between measured force and velocity. We consider a case when a violation of that linear law takes place in order to take this effect into account for LFV. The response of the Lorentz force to a time-dependent velocity of solid conducting rods is experimentally studied. Solid conductors were chosen due to th...

Non-destructive Eddy current (EC) technique has long been used to detect discontinuities in materials. Recently, its application has been extended to characterize materials microstructure. In order to identify different microstructures, four plain carbon steel bars with different chemical compositions (AISI 1015, 1035, 1045 and 1080) were used in annealed condition. The pearlite percentage, car...
متن کاملQUALITY CONTROL OF PRECIPITATION HARDENED ALUMINIUM ALLOY PARTS VIA EDDY-CURRENT NONDESTRUCTIVE EVALUATION
Precipitation hardening is the most common method in the strengthening of aluminium alloys. This method relies on the decrease of solid solubility with temperature reduction to produce fine precipitations which impede the movement of dislocations. The quality control of aluminium alloy specimens is an important concern of engineers. Among different methods, non-destructive techniques are the...
