Ferritic

Two types of materials are studied in the CIAPES programme ferritic steel and stainless steel. A database for vessels monitored by acoustic emission has been builded to collect the results of all the tests carried out in laboratory and in situ.

Simulations of the adaptive reconstruction have been performed for a single slice of a porosity in ferritic weld as shown in Fig. 2a [11]. The image matrix has the dimensions 230x120 pixels. The number of beams in each projection is M=131. The total number of projections K was chosen to be 50. For the projections the usual CT setup was used restricted to angels between 0° and 180° with the uniform step size of about 3.7°. The diagonal form of the quadratic criteria F(a,a) and f(a,a) were used for the reconstruction algorithms (5) and (6). 

This correction function was calculated for different kinds of excitation coils, like circular coils without ferrite core, spiral coils, double-D coils and a sheet inducer. For this purpose the eddy current density was determined for frequencies between 10 and 1000 Hz and for depths between 0 and 30 mm. 

The sensitivity to defects and other control parameters can be improved by optimizing the choice of the probe. It appears, after study of different types of probes (ferritic, wild steel, insulator) with different geometries (dish, conical,. ..), necessary to underline that the success of a feasibility research, largely depends on a suitable definition of measure collectors, so that they are adapted to the considered problem. 

By increasing the probe diameter, we bring down tlie impedance point along the impedance curve with the same way as the electrical frequency or conductivity. We will describe only one type of probes, namely, the probe with ferritic circular section that we could qualify as punctual with an optimal sensibility. In order to satisfy these conditions, tests will be made to confirm these results by ... 

As a conclusion to this experiment and in order to optimize the sensibility of tire probe it is necessary that the coil shall be on the edge of the ferrite. The results obtained confirm the probe stability.

Waveguides are coimnonly used to transmit microwaves from the source to the resonator and subsequently to the receiver. For not-too-high-frequency radiation (<10 GHz) low-loss MW transmission can also be achieved usmg strip-lines and coaxial cables. At the output of a klystron an isolator is often used to prevent back-reflected microwaves to perturb the on-resonant klystron mode. An isolator is a microwave-ferrite device that pemiits the transmission of microwaves in one direction and strongly attenuates their propagation in the other direction. The prmciple of this device involves the Faraday effect, that is, the rotation of the polarization...
