  • Descrição: A reliable nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technique provides minimum 90% probability of detection(POD) with 95% confidence for detection of cracklike flaws of a qualified size. In this case, the flaws are on backside of material. Eddy current array (ECA) probe or a single sensor eddy current probe in c-scanning mode is used for the flaw detection. Here, two geometries are considered for the test specimens. The two geometries are, a flat plate, and tube or pipe. The probe is assumed to be on outer diameter (OD)surface and the flaw is assumed to be at the inner diameter (ID) surface for tube inspection. The flaw and probe are on opposite side of wall thickness for inspection of plate material. The application may be used for acreage inspection or just for inspection of butt weld and heat affected zone (HAZ) in a tube, cylinder, or plate. The proposed approach is based on developing an instrument standardization or calibration procedure. Decision threshold of inspection procedure is determined using empirical qualification and noise data. The work explores essential parameters that are required to meet certain conditions to ensure reliable flaw detection. Physics-based simulation of eddy current array flaw detection is used to understand effect of essential parameters on signal response (amplitude and phase),and therefore flaw detectability. Simulation data is used to justify choice of calibration reference standard requirements and the qualification approach. An ECA technique qualification model is provided. The paper gives brief description of tasks to be completed for qualifying ECA technique for reliable detection of cracklike flaws.
