This book was released on 2007 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultrasonic methods have been very popular in nondestructive testing and characterization of materials. This book deals with both industrial ultrasound and medical ultrasound. The advantages of ultrasound include flexibility, low cost, in-line operation, and providing data in both signal and image formats for further analysis. The book devotes 11 chapters to ultrasonic methods. However, ultrasonic methods can be much less effective with some applications.

Download or read book Sensors for Ultrasonic NDT in Harsh Environments written by Anthony N Sinclair and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-05-13 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this Special Issue of Sensors, seven peer-reviewed manuscripts appear on the topic of ultrasonic transducer design and operation in harsh environments: elevated temperature, high gamma and neutron radiation fields, or the presence of aggressive chemicals. Motivations for these research and development projects are strongly focused on nuclear power plant inspections (particularly liquid-sodium cooled reactors), and nondestructive testing of high-temperature piping installations. It is anticipated that extensive use of permanently mounted robust transducers for in-service monitoring of petrochemical plants and power generations stations; quality control in manufacturing plants; and primary and secondary process monitoring in the fabrication of engineering materials will soon be made.
Download or read book An Investigation Into the Temperature Effect on the Performance of Ultrasonic Transducers for High Temperature and Harsh Environment Applications written by Andrew Suprock and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transducer technology is an in-demand resource particularly in the fields of ultrasonic non-destructive evaluation (UNDE), structural health monitoring (SHM), and biomedical ultrasound. For years, transducers have been used to characterize various types of materials, ranging from metals to composites (interwoven conglomeration of various materials) and even organics as well as to establish the integrity of structural components such as bridge struts, subterranean pipelines, and vehicle bodies. Transducers can even be used to find defects, cracks, delaminations, etc on the micro- and nano-scales. Most of these processes occur at room temperature or only slightly elevated temperatures (100 oC). This means that the physical components have little to fear from the stress and strain of thermal expansion as well as the process of oxidation. However, when higher temperature (400 oC) capabilities are necessary, only a select few piezoelectric materials can make the cut. The piezoelectric material must be combined with the right components from the casing, to the waveguide, to the coupling, to the matching layer, as well as the backing material and work together cohesively with a lead wire to produce the most consistent and cleanest acoustic signals and data possible for their particular application.The objective of this thesis is to investigate the influence of the temperature effect on ultrasonic transducers based on a comparison of the effects of high temperature conditions versus those of high temperature and irradiation on the transducer system. There will also be a preliminary move towards the establishment of the means for optimizing the bulk single crystal transducer fabrication process in order to achieve peak efficiency and maximum effectiveness in both irradiated and non-irradiated high temperature applications. Optimization of the material components within the transducer will greatly increase non-destructive testing abilities for industry, structural health monitoring, and so much more.The following research involves testing several different piezoelectric materials under high temperature conditions. The viability of aluminum nitride (AlN) as a transducer material in high temperature conditions has been previously explored [1] (Parks, et al, 2010) and shall be further tested to ensure reliability. Zinc oxide (ZnO) and bismuth titanate (BiT) will also be explored as they have shown promising results in the past. Data collected from the ULtrasonic TRAnsducers (ULTRA) project will also be compared to the high temperature data since the construction of the transducer was the same. A preliminary search of various combinations of transducer material components (waveguide and backing materials in order to find the best match for a given piezoelectric material) will be conducted to find the best combination of these components for steady and strong acoustic transmission.
