ULTRA SONIC TECHNEQUE FOR NDT Source of sound is in a state of vibration Smaller amplitude & higher frequency ultrasonic Diffraction Scatter Absorption

Attenuation of

Energy =5 MHZ for thin plate Velocity measurement by pulso echo method U = 6000 m/sec. for aluminium U =5800 m/sec. for steel U = 3300 m/sec. for composite for thick plates: 1 MHZ

More the thickness of the part more will be the attenuation The transmission speed of ultrasonic sand increases with increase of fibre loading X-RAM 10-20KV - for carbon and Kevlar parts 20-60KV - for glass parts

PULSE VIDEO THERMO GRAPHY

The part is heated to say 30-40C Heat diffusion into the part take place. The diffusion depends on the internal defects. This is detected by the IR camera and the back side of the part.
