آزمون فرا صوتي Ultrasonic Test
5
آزمونهاي فرا صوتي كاربرد بسيار گستردهاي در تعيين نقصهاي دروني مواد دارند.
از اين روش ميتوان براي تعيين تركهاي زير سطحي نيز استفاده كرد. آزمونهاي فرا صوتي علاوه بر بازرسي قطعات تكميل شده براي بازرسي كنترل كيفيت مراحل مختلف توليد قطعاتي همچون ورقهاي نورد شده نيز بكار ميروند. مباني آزمون فرا صوتي از ايجاد موجهاي صوتي توسط يك ضربان سنج استخراج شده است. روش مدرن بكار گرفته شده امروزي، التراسونيك ناميده ميشود كه علت اين نامگذاري كلمه Sona ميباشد كه در لاتين به معني صوت است.
6
سرعت موج : در حالت كلي هر چه محيط مادي فشردهتر باشد، سرعت حركت موج صوتي در آن بيشتر است. بنابراين سرعت حركت امواج صوتي در جامدات بيشتر از سيالات ميباشد.
7
Sound Wavelength : The distance required to complete a cycle
Measured in Meter or mm Frequency : The number of cycles per unit time Measured in Hertz (Hz) or Cycles per second (cps) Velocity : How quick the sound travels Distance per unit time Measured in meter / second (m / sec)
8
Wavelength Velocity Frequency
9
Sound Waves Sound waves are the vibration of particles in solids liquids or gases Particles vibrate about a mean position In order to vibrate they require mass and resistance to change One cycle
10
Properties of a sound wave
Sound cannot travel in vacuum Sound energy to be transmitted / transferred from one particle to another SOLID LIQUID GAS
11
Velocity The velocity of sound in a particular material is CONSTANT
It is the product of DENSITY and ELASTICITY of the material It will NOT change if frequency changes Only the wavelength changes Examples: V Compression in steel : 5960 m/s V Compression in water : 1470 m/s V Compression in air : m/s 5 M Hz STEEL WATER AIR
13
ساختمان پروب : چندين نوع پروب فرستنده وجود دارد، اما همه انواع آنها داراي كريستالي است كه مستقيماً يا از طريق پوشش محافظ با ماده مورد آزمايش در تماس است. جنس بلور معمولاً از كوارتز طبيعي، تيتانات باريم، نيوبات سرب و سولفات ليتيم ميباشد. ولتاژ پلهاي كوتاه مدتي به كريستال اعمال ميشود. پروبها ممكن است قائم يا زاويهدار باشند.
14
پروبهاي زاويهدار : پروبهاي زاويهدار براي فرستادن موجهاي برشي يا موجهاي ريلي به درون قطعه تحت بازرسي طراحي شدهاند. ساختمان كلي پروب زاويهاي همانند پروب عمودي است با اين تفاوت كه بلور در قطعه پرسپكسي جاسازي شده است. موج طولي بازگشتي كه در فصل مشترك پرسپكسي - فلز توليد ميشود، ممكن است به كريستال برگردد و علائم گمراه كنندهاي به وجود آورد. براي جلوگيري از اين كار ماده جذب كنندهاي همچون لاستيك در پروب جاسازي ميشود. روش ديگر اين است كه قطعه پرسپكس به گونهاي شكل داده شود كه موج برگشتي چندين بار بازتاب شود و انرژي خود را از دست بدهد و از آنجا كه ضريب جذب پرسپكس بالا است، اين امكان وجود خواهد داشت.
15
پروبهای قائم امواج را با زاویه صفر درجه و به صورت عمود وارد قطعه میکنند .

Resolution RESOLUTION in Pulse Echo Testing is the ability to separate echoes from two or more closely spaced reflectors. RESOLUTION is strongly affected by Pulse Length: Short Pulse Length - GOOD RESOLUTION Long Pulse Length - POOR RESOLUTION RESOLUTION is an extremely important property in WELD TESTING because the ability to separate ROOT GEOMETRY echoes from ROOT CRACK or LACK OF ROOT FUSION echoes largely determines the effectiveness of Pulse Echo UT in the testing of single sided welds.

Sound at an Interface Sound will be either transmitted across or reflected back Reflected How much is reflected and transmitted depends upon the relative acoustic impedance of the 2 materials Interface Transmitted MMZ02
73
Acoustic Impedance Steel 46.7 x 106 Measured in Water 1.48 x 106

74
% Sound Reflected at an Interface
% Sound Reflected + % Sound Transmitted = 100% Therefore % Sound Transmitted = 100% - % Sound Reflected MMZ02

82
SIZING METHODS 0O PROBE There are four main sizing techniques used with 0o probes: 6 dB drop Maximum Amplitude Equalisation DGS
83
For sizing large planar reflectors only
6 dB Drop For sizing large planar reflectors only Signal / echo reduced to half the height Example: 100% to 50% 80% to 40% 70% to 35% 20% to 10% Centre of probe marked representing the edge of defect.
84
6 dB Drop Defect BWE Plan View
The back wall echo reduced as some part of the beam now striking the defect The echo of the defect has NOT yet maximise as the whole beam Not yet striking the defect
85
6 dB Drop Defect Now the whole beam is on the defect
Plan View Defect Now the whole beam is on the defect Back wall echo is now may be reduced or disappeared
86
6 dB Drop Defect BWE Plan View
The probe is moved back until the echo is reduced by half of it’s original height At this point the probe centre beam is directly on the edge of the defect The probe is then removed and the centre is marked, and repeat to size the whole defect
87
Maximum Amplitude Technique
For sizing multifaceted defect – eg. crack Not very accurate Small probe movement
88
Maximum Amplitude Multifaceted defect : crack
The whole probe beam is on the defect At this point, multipoint of the defect reflect the sound to the probe The echo (signal) show as a few peaks
89
Maximum Amplitude Multifaceted defect : crack
If the probe is moved into the defect, the signals height increase The probe is moved out of the defect, the signal disappeared One of the peak maximised If the edge of the beam strike the edge of the defect, a very small echo appears At this point the MAIN BEAM is directly at the edge of the defect
90
Maximum Amplitude Remember: The peak which maximised does not have to be the tallest or the first one Length The probe is to be moved to the other end of the defect Mark the point under the centre of the probe which indicates the edge of the defect The signals will flactuate as the beam hits the different faces of the defects The length of the defect is measured The probe is moved back into the defect and to observe a peak of the signal maximises
91
Equalization Technique
The equalization technique can ONLY be used if the defect is halfway the thickness Defect BWE At this point the whole beam is on the back wall The BWE is at it maximum At this point the whole beam is on the defect The Defect echo is at it maximum At the edge of the defect, half of the beam is on the defect, and another half is on the back wall The defect echo is at equal height as the back wall The point is marked as the edge of defect

THREADLIKE DEFECTS, POINT DEFECTS AND FLAT PLANAR DEFECTS ORIENTATED NEAR-NORMAL TO THE BEAM AXIS ALL PRODUCE AN ECHO RESPONSE WHICH HAS A SINGLE PEAK:
119
PLANAR (NEAR NORMAL INCIDENCE)
THESE DEFECTS CAN BE DIFFERENTIATED BETWEEN BY OBSERVING THE ECHO DYNAMIC BEHAVIOUR IN LENGTH AND DEPTH SCANS: POINT THREADLIKE PLANAR (NEAR NORMAL INCIDENCE) DEPTH SCAN LENGTH SCAN NOTE: THE RESPONSE FROM A PLANAR DEFECT WILL BE STRONGLY AFFECTED BY PROBE ANGLE WHILE THAT FROM A THREADLIKE REFLECTOR WILL REMAIN ALMOST UNCHANGED IF A DIFFERENT PROBE ANGLE IS USED.
120
THE ECHO RESPONSE FROM A LARGE SLAG INCLUSION OR A ROUGH CRACK IS LIKELY TO HAVE MULTIPLE PEAKS:
121
SOMETIMES IT WILL BE POSSIBLE TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THESE 2 DEFECTS SIMPLY BY PLOTTING THEIR POSITION WITHIN THE WELD ZONE: A. PROBABLE SLAG, POSSIBLE CENTRELINE CRACK B. PROBABLE HAZ CRACK
122
“ROTATIONAL” OR “ORBITAL” PROBE MOVEMENTS MAY HELP:
IN CASE “A” IT WILL BE DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE DEFECT IS SLAG OR A CRACK. “ROTATIONAL” OR “ORBITAL” PROBE MOVEMENTS MAY HELP: ORBITAL ROTATIONAL
