Practical for NDT

(RI)

By Untung Budi
Testing of Weld

A DT Destructive Test
B NDT ( Non Destructive Test)
– Visual
– PT ( penetrant Test)
– MPI (Magnetic Particle Test)
– UT( Ultrasonic Test) advances call Phased Array UT
– RT(Radiographic Test)
RT

– X Tray
– Gama Ray
– Iridium 192(75 day)
– Caesium 137(30 year)
– Radium 226(1600year)
– Thuium 170+(130 day)
– Chobal Co 60(5.3Year)
X - Rays Gamma Rays

Density - relates to the
degree of darkness

Contrast - relates to the degree of difference

Definition - relates to the degree of sharpness

Sensitivity - relates to the overall quality of the


radiograph

 Single Wall Single Image (SWSI)
- film inside, source outside
 Single Wall Single Image (SWSI) panoramic
- film outside, source inside (internal exposure)
 Double Wall Single Image (DWSI)
- film outside, source outside (external exposure)
 Double Wall Double Image (DWDI)
- film outside, source outside (elliptical exposure)
–  As per table gamma exposure chart
T
T :Time exposure
EF :Exposure Factor
D(sfd) :Distance Source to film
I : Curie
Example:
If you had a 50 curie source of IR-192 and were going to
radiograph 2 inch steel with source to film distance 20
inch ,what will be the exposure time that would give a
density 2 ?

Advantages
 - Permanent record
 - Little surface preparation
 - Defect identification
 - No material type limitation
 - Not so reliant upon operator skill
 -Thin materials
*Expensive consumables
Disadvantages
*Bulky equipment
*Harmful radiation
*Defect require significant depth in relation to the radiation beam
*Slow results
*Very little indication of depths
*Access to both sides required
