Metal material crack type defect depth measuring device and method

Abstract

The invention discloses a metal material crack type defect depth measuring device and method. A pulse generator (1) emits a pulse signal to drive a multi-turn coil (2) to generate ultrasonic waves ina metal sample (4) based on a Lorentz force mechanism, a receiving probe (3) receives the ultrasonic waves and converts same into an electrical signal, the electrical signal is amplified by a signal amplifier (5), and the peak-to-peak value of the ultrasonic waves is recorded by a signal recording and analyzing module (6). The method comprises the following steps: in a calibration stage, measuringthe standard sample without defects, recording the peak-to-peak value of the S0 Lamb wave as A0, artificially fabricating grooves of different depths h on the standard sample to obtain the peak-to-peak value Ah of the S0 Lamb wave when the depth of the groove is h, calculating the enhancement coefficient E=Ah / A0 of the S0 Lamb wave, and plotting a (h, E) graph; and in an actual measurement stage,using the metal material to be tested as the metal sample (4), obtaining the peak-to-peak value of the S0 Lamb wave as Ad, calculating E=Ad / A0, and obtaining the depth h of the crack type defect by the (h, E) graph.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to electromagnetic ultrasonic nondestructive testing technology, in particular to a method of exciting ultrasonic waves in metal materials through a Lorentz force mechanism. The increase in amplitude is called near-field enhancement. The relationship between the enhancement coefficient of S0 Lamb wave and the depth of crack-type defects is used to carry out non-destructive testing of the depth of crack-type defects in metal materials. Background technique [0002] Crack is a dangerous defect, which not only seriously weakens the bearing capacity and corrosion resistance of the workpiece, but also easily causes stress concentration at the end of the crack, which becomes the source of various fractures. In actual inspection, cracks often appear in the workpiece geometry, structure and load discontinuity, such as weld fusion line, heat affected zone, etc. The application of penetration and magnetic particle inspection methods can eff...
