Study Notes
Ultrasound Transmission Thickness Measurement
- Ultrasound transmission thickness measurement can detect defects such as cracks, voids, delaminations, inclusions, and corrosion.
- One advantage of ultrasound transmission thickness measurement is its good sensitivity.
- Materials with high acoustic impedance can pose problems for ultrasound transmission thickness measurement.
- Inspection of thin thicknesses is difficult with ultrasound transmission measurement because the sound wave may not penetrate the material.
- One limitation of ultrasound transmission thickness measurement is that it cannot be used to inspect materials with complex geometries.
- Ultrasound transmission thickness measurement provides the advantage of fast inspection when examining samples with simple geometries.
NDT
- NDT can detect various defects, including cracks, voids, porosity, inclusions, and laminations.
- In NDT procedures, knowledge of the acceptable defect sizes and locations is required to determine which discontinuities are defects.
- A disadvantage of NDT that involves different analysis tests is that it can be time-consuming.
- Non-critical defects in NDT are those that do not affect the material's function.
- An advantage of NDT compared to UC3M is that it is non-destructive.
- A portable equipment advantage of NDT is that it can be used in various locations.
Liquid Penetrant Testing
- The primary objective of liquid penetrant testing is to detect surface-breaking defects.
- A defect's irrelevant characteristic is whether it is open to the surface.
- A disadvantage of NDT is that it can be subjective.
- The main requirement for NDT techniques to identify the area to be examined is to define the region of interest.
- Ultrasonic testing is suitable for detecting internal and external cracks.
- A critical characteristic of material for NDT selection is its surface condition.
