Ultrasonic Test

Ultrasonic testing uses transducers that emit and receive ultrasonic sound waves to detect flaws in materials. It works on the piezoelectric principle, converting electrical energy to ultrasonic vibrations. There are various ultrasonic testing techniques including pulse-echo, through transmission, and immersion. Defects are displayed using A-scans, B-scans, and C-scans. Transducers come in different designs like dual element or angle beam for various applications. Ultrasonic testing can detect small defects, determine depth, and is suitable for automation.

PROPERTIES OF SOUNDWAVES

NDT

Ultrasonic vibrations travel in the form of a wave, similar to the way light travels. = v/f = Wavelength v = material sound velocity f = frequency

ULTRASONIC TESTING
Wave Propagation and Particle Motion: Longitudinal Wave : Particle Motion is in the direction of wave propagation. Shear Wave : particle motion is perpendicular to the direction of the propagation.
