Abstract An equipment suitable for the location of surface or submerged flaws in nonmagnetic metals is described. A predetermined pattern of electrical eddy currents is induced in a perfect test sample by alternating magnetic fields. Sensitive pickup coils properly disposed in relation to the eddy currents measure only the departures of the eddy-current pattern from the pattern in the perfect sample. The departures are indicated on a meter or may be recorded. Performance data are given for a universal type of search unit especially adapted for general surveys.

The paper deals with the magneto-optical eddy current method of flaw detection of conducting materials, in which epitaxial films of ferrite garnet are used as sensors. In particular, the possibilities of visualization of welded seams in magnetic and non-magnetic samples, as well as the defectoscopy of the seams themselves, are considered. The second part of the work is devoted to mathematical modeling of the distribution of the magnetic fields of eddy currents near similar defects.

Multi Stage

The highly loaded components used in machine building, automotive and aviation must have no thermal damage during grinding, the so-called grinding burn. In less loaded components, the grinding burn shall not exceed a certain level agreed between the manufacturer and the customer. In industrial practice, etching, Barkhausen-Rausch methods and eddy current are used to detect burns. To reliably perform inspection according to any of the methods, it is necessary that the flaw detection experts have sufficient knowledge and skills. This is particularly relevant for the multi-stage chemical etching process. In 2015, at the request of Turkish partners, IMQ developed the course "Inspection of grinding burns using chemical etching" in accordance with ISO 14104 and AMS 2649. Since then, more than 70 participants from several European countries have successfully completed this two-day course. In cooperation with DGZfP Ausbildung und Training GmbH, IMQ has developed a new course for the training of flaw detectors in the burns inspection during grinding. In addition to the etching method, the course included the eddy current method and the Barkhausen method, as well as liquid penetrant testing and magnetic powder testing. The content of the course, practical exercises and elements of the final exam in theory and practice are presented.

Cracks by SCC (stress corrosion cracking) and high cycle fatigue were detected at the welded joints of nickel based alloy of reactor vessel, pressurizer and core internal of nuclear power plants in recent years. To ensure the integrity of plants, it is necessary to improve NDT (non-destructive testing) techniques for reliable detection and evaluation of defects in the nickel-base alloy. Basic studies on the flaw detection and characterization by eddy current examination of inconel, a typical nickel-base alloy, are carried out. Specimens made of inconel and inconel weld metal are prepared, fabricated with EDM (Electro-Discharge Machining) notches and fatigue cracks. The detecting and sizing capability of eddy current method is investigated through analytical and experimental approaches. Numerical analysis helps in choosing an appropriate probe and examination condition, and evaluating a crack from the measured signals. All or part of a planar crack is reconstructed using an inversion approach. The result from ECT (eddy current testing) is compared with that of UT (ultrasonic testing). The research presented in this paper shows that by choosing a proper testing situation, eddy current examination is feasible for the detection and sizing of surface-breaking cracks in inconel welds.
