Abstract
Diagnosis f structural integrity is the basis for correct treatment of and countermeasures against progressive structural abnormalities. An exact diagnosis is at present the most reliable means for determining the soundness of structures during power plant operations. Acoustic emission(AE) technology has recently strengthened its application base, and practitioners' understanding of the technique's fundamentals. This paper presents the results of a survey and assessment on AE monitoring applications in nuclear, fossil and hydraulic power plant. The main objective of this paper was to obtain information on various applications of AE technology in electric power plant.
