유동층보일러를 구성하는 요소 중 하나인 수냉벽튜브는 외부의 고온 연소 가스를 이용해 물을 증기로 가열하는 튜브군의 하나로써, 보일러를 이용한 전력생산에 중요한 역할을 담당하지만, 고온 가스 및 유동매체로 인해 마모 및 부식이 심하게 일어나면 누수가 발생하게 되고, 누수로 인한 2차 피해도 발생될 뿐만 아니라, 발전 효율이 현저히 떨어지게 되어 수냉벽튜브의 유지보수는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 원격장 기반의 발신자(Exciter) 센서 설계, 원격장 와전류 시스템 구성, 수냉벽튜브 외벽 결함평가를 목적으로 하였으며, 이를 위한 발신자 형상의 센서 설계를 시작으로, 수냉벽튜브의 크기, 재질, 주파수, Lift-Off (센서와 수냉벽튜브 사이의 거리) 등 여러 가지 요인에 따른 시험을 진행하여 그에 따른 최적의 발신자 센서를 설계하였다.

Ferritic stainless steels, which have relatively small thermal expansion coefficient and excellent corrosion resistance, are increasingly being used in vehicle manufacturing, in order to increase the lifetime of exhaust manifold parts. But, there are limits on use because of the problem related to cosmetic resistance, corrosions of condensation and high temperature salt etc. So, Aluminum-coated stainless steel instead of ferritic stainless steel are utilized in these parts due to the improved properties. In this investigation, Al-8wt% Si alloy coated 409L ferritic stainless steel was used as the base metal during Gas Tungsten Arc(GTA) welding. The effects of coated layer on the microstructure and hardness were investigated. Full penetration was obtained, when the welding current was higher than 90A and the welding speed was lower than 0.52m/min. Grain size was the largest in fusion zone and decreased from near HAZ to base metal. As welding speed increased, grain size of fusion zone decreased, and there was no big change in HAZ. Hardness had a peak value in the fusion zone and decreased from the bond line to the base metal. The highest hardness in the fusion zone resulted from the fine re-precipitation of the coarse TiN and Ti(C, N) existed in the base metal during melting and solidification process and the presence of fine $Al_2O_3$ and $SiO_2$ formed by the migration of the elements, Al and Si, from the melted coating layer into the fusion zone.
