Inspection of nuclear reactor welding by acoustic emission. Interim report No. 1

Description

The work includes: Assembly of and consolidation of GARD (General American Research Division) hardware into a field portable acoustic emission monitor system for the purpose of conducting field tests; (2) The conduction of the first of these tests, the calibration tests, in which welds were tape recorded and used to calibrate the field portable acoustic emission monitor; and (3) The conduction of the second of the tests, the production tests. In the production tests, the welds are actual production pieces; and the acoustic emission monitor indications are correlated with ASME code requirement radiographs and other nondestructive tests such as dye-check and UT, as to location, size, and rejectability of defects
