  • An investigation has been made on the relationship between characteristics of Acoustic Emission (AE) signal in welding flaw and the stress corrosion defect in-service for the high pressure pipe steel. In order to tackle the problem of welding flaw in high pressure pipe, specimens were made by the aid of the application of both corrosion liquid usage and a quenching method after local heating. The amplitude of signal was $60{\sim}75\;dB$ in the territory which is suspected for defect, and the specimens which only have welding flaw showed gradients of 0.034, 0.034, 0.035. Moreover, there is a certain increase in gradient even though the differences are very slight. That is, corrosion specimens showed new gradients of 0.040, 0.039, 0.041 which put welding flaw and corrosion mechanism together. After pressurizing 3 minutes, AE signal has been detected from welding flaw easily in each part of the section. It is possible to predict the occurrence and also prevent the damage of stress corrosion crack which has characteristics of cleavage fracture.

  • 국내 전자력 발전소 J-1호기의 증기발생기 전열관에 발생한 1차측 응력부식균열(PWSCC) 결함 데이터를 기초로하여, PWSCC 발생률 및 성장률에 대한 Shot-Peening 효과를 조사하였다. 이를 위하여, (i) Weibull 기울기, (ⅱ) 주기별 성장률 및 (ⅲ) 평균 결함길이 등을 분석하였다. Shot-Peening에 의해 PWSCC 결함 발생틀 및 성장틀은 전반적으로 감소하였으나, Shot-Peening 직후에는 급격한 증가 양상물 보인 후 다시 감소하였다. 한편 Shot-Peening의 PWSCC 절함 성장에 대한 감소 효과는 새로운 결함에 국한되며, 기존의 결함에 대해서는 영향이 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다.

  • 원전의 열성층 현상으로 발생하는 열 피로균열 및 입계응력부식균열(IGSCC) 등은 결함에 대해서 검사자의 특별한 관심과 노력 없이는 초음파를 이용해 이러한 종류의 결함검출 및 크기 측정이 쉽지 않다. 이러한 결함의 검출 및 크기 측정을 위해서 먼저 초음파 모드 변환 기법을 사용하여 결함 검출 및 결함 크기를 분류한 후에 결함 끝단에서의 초음파 회절파(tip diffraction)를 이용한 여러 가지의 초음파 기법 둥으로 정확한 결함 크기를 측정하여 가동전 중점검시 발견된 결함의 추적 관리 및 결함평가신뢰도 향상에 기여하고자 한다. 따라서, 여기서는 열 피로균열 및 입계응력부식균열 등과 같은 결함의 정확한 검출 및 크기 측정을 위해 초음파 모드 변환 기법의 특성을 철저히 이해하고 이에 관련된 초음파 신호들을 정확히 구분할 수 있는 방법을 기술하였다.

  • There are many tube and pipeline in nuclear power plant under high temperature and high pressure. Erosion and corrosion defects were expected on these tube and pipe-line by environmental and mechanical factors. These erosion and corrosion defects ran be evaluated by ultrasonic technique. In these study, Scanning Laser Source(SLS) technique was applied to detect defect and construct image. This technique also makes detection possible on rough and curved surfaces such as tube and pipe-line by scanning. Conventional ultrasonic scanning technique requires immersion of specimen or water jet for transferring ultrasonic wave between transducer and specimen. However, this SLS technique does not need contacting and couplant to generate surface wave and to get flaw images. Therefore, this SLS technique has several advantages, for complicated production inspection, non-contact, remote from specimen, and high resolution. In this study, SLS images were obtained with various conditions of generation laser ultrasound and receiving in order to enhance detectability of flaws on the tube. Stress corrosion cracks were produced on tube and images of stress corrosion cracks were constructed by using SLS technique.

  • Corrosion has a significant influence upon the reliability assessment and the maintenance planning of gas pipeline. Corrosion defects occurred on the underground pipeline can be obtained by conducting periodic in-line inspection (ILI). However, little study has been done for practical use of ILI data. This paper deals with remaining lifetime prediction of the gas pipeline in the presence of corrosion defects. Because a pipeline parameter includes uncertainty in its operation, a probabilistic approach is adopted in this paper. A pipeline fails when its operating pressure is larger than the pipe failure pressure. In order to estimate the failure probability, this paper uses First Order Reliability Method (FORM) which is popular in the field of structural engineering. A well-known Battelle code is chosen as the computational model for the pipe failure pressure. This paper develops a Matlab GUI for illustrating failure probability predictions Our result indicates that clustering of corrosion defects is helpful for improving a prediction accuracy and preventing an unnecessary maintenance.

  • Chemical tanker의 Crago tank는 화학제품에 대한 내식성, 내산성 등이 요구되는 재료로서 스테인레스강이나, 스테인레스 클래드강이 주로 사용되고 있다. 이러한 스테인레스강을 사용한다 하더라도 사용시 국부적인 결함 및 부식의 문제점이 발생되고 있다. 특히 스테인레스 클래드강을 사용했을 경우 부식 및 기타 요인에 의해 결함이 발생했을 때, 클래드재(앞대기재)의 두께가 약 2.5mm 정도에 불과하므로 보수작업이 어려우며, 보수작업에 의한 산화피막의 파괴는 부식을 촉진시킨다. 이들 결함 및 부식 발생의 여러요인 중 특히 용접 시공상의 문제점이 가장 크게 영향을 미친다. 또한 용접 시공상의 문제점 중 스팻터를 제거하기 위해서는 많은 공수가 소모될 뿐 아니라 품질면에서도 나쁜 영향을 주고 있다. 본 고에서는 스팻터 생성기구의 검토와 스팻터가 모제에 미치는 영향을 다루고자 한다. 또한 용접조건 및 용접재료의 변화에 의한 스팻터 생성량 변화, 입도에 따른 비행거리 등을 검토하는데 목적을 두었다.

  • 자기 누설 탐상(Magnetic Flux Leakage : MFL) 시스템은 비파괴 검사의 한 방법으로 검사 대상 물체를 적절히 포화시켜 부식이나 결함 부위에서의 누설 자속을 측정하여 결함의 유 무와 크기를 판단하는 방법이다. 대부분 가스관과 가스관을 연결하는 방법으로 용접을 가장 많이 사용하고 있으며 용접부위에서 부식이 가장 많이 발생하고 있다. 용접으로 인해 발생하는 자기 누설신호는 부식신호에 많은 영향을 미친다. 따라서 본 연구는 용접신호가 부식 신호에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 가스관의 용접과 부식과의 거리에 따른 자기누설을 해석하고, 분석하였다. 또한 용접에 의해 왜곡된 부식신호를 보정하고, 판정을 위한 방법을 제시하였다.

  • Nuclide release through penetrations in radioactive waste container is analyzed. Penetrations may result from corrosion or cracking and may be through the container material or through deposits of corrosion products. The analysis deals with the resultant nuclide release, but not with the way these penetrations occur. Numerical illustrations show that mass transport from multiple holes can be significant and may approach the mass transfer rate calculated from bare waste forms. Although partially-failed containers may present an important long-term barrier to release of radionuclides, numerous small holes on a container surface have the potential of bypassing the effectiveness of these barriers.

  • The length of city gas pipeline is increasing with expansion of natural gas transmission rapidly. A lot of the expense was paid for repair and maintenance with increasing of pipeline length and the cost of repair and maintenance by the corrosion was the highest. It is necessary to evaluate integrity in case of thickness reduction by corrosion. There are a lot of assessment criteria for corrosion defect in foreign countries but they are not suitable for application in the country directly. In this work, we performed the burst test and the finite element analysis for city gas pipeline, KS D3507 and KS D3631 for city gas transmission, and developed the assessment method of corrosion defect, which is suitable for domestic condition.
