초음파(超音波)의 수직탐상법(垂直探傷法)에 의한 경사(傾斜)를 갖는 원형평면결함(圓形平面缺陷)의 크기 평가(評價)에 관한 연구(硏究)

In the straight beam inspection of ultrasonic wave, the method for evaluating flaw size by AVG diagram is useful as a method for the quantitative evaluation of results of ultrasonic flaw detection. This study was carried out the measure the size of circular flat flaw with the inclination by straight beam inspection and could be decreased the error of application due to the inclination of flaw by AVG diagram in consideration of correction coefficient. From the result of the experiment, the error by means of the application of experimental values to AVG diagram was increased as the inclination angle grows. Also, it n s increased the error of application as the detecting frequency and diameter of flaw grows in the same inclination angle. In case of diameter of flaw 6mm, AVG diagram could be applied to the inclination angle $3^{\circ}$ for 5 MHz, $7^{\circ}$ for 2.25 MHz, $15^{\circ}C$ for 1 MHz in the range of 20% error and the theory was concided with the experiment to $5^{\circ}C$ for 5 MHz, $10^{\circ}C$ for 2.25 MHz, $15^{\circ}C$ for 1 MHz in the range of 10% error by correction eq. (45) due to the inclination angle. Therefore, it is considered that the results obtained from this study will be somewhat helpful informations for the size evaluation of circular flat flaw with the inclination.
