Evaluation of wall thinning of T-joint pipes with reinforcing plates by SH wave EMAT
- 1. Tohoku University, Institute of Fluid Science, Sendai, Miyagi (Japan)
Description
Detection and sizing of pipe wall thinning under reinforcing plates of T-joint pipes are one of critical issues for the pipe wall thinning management in nuclear industry. In this study, wall thinning is evaluated using shear horizontal (SH) wave propagating in the circumferential direction of main pipe of T-joint. To transmit and receive the SH waves, an electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT) is employed. The feasibility of present method was investigated through experiments using simulated T-joint pipes specimens with various drilled holes. (author)
