소구경 배관 소켓 용접부의 고주기 피로특성윽 평가하고 피로 균열의 발생을 음향방출법을 이용하여 실시간 모니터링 하였다. 스테인리스 316L강 시험편은 가스텅스텐아크용접 공정으로 루트부에 결함이 없는 시험편과 용입불량 결함이 있는 시험편으로 준비하였다. 피로파단은 고응력 일때는 토우부, 상대적으로 저응력일 때는 루트부에서 일어났다. 피로시험동안 음향방출 카운트가 급격히 증가하는 시점을 균열의 발생 싸이클 ($N_i$)로 정의하였고 방사선투과법과 전자현미경을 이용하여 피로균열 생성 싸이클 전과 후에서 균열을 확인하였다. 소켓용접배관의 굽힘피로 손상 진단 및 감시를 위해 균열의 존재와 파괴모드 그리고 균열의 발생 싸이클에 관한 연구를 수행하였다.

The piping system of a nuclear power plant plays a role of transferring high energy fluid to equipment and various devices. The safety and soundness of these piping systems are very closely related to the operability of the power plant. In the case of a welded part of a small diameter pipe, it may grow as a microcrack due to a lack of penetration, and it may grow to a size that affects the safety of the pipe due to the influence of mechanical vibration and fatigue load. Resonance refers to an increase in energy as the natural frequency of an object coincides with the frequency applied to the external force. When this resonance occurs, the frequency is the resonance frequency. In this study, when defects exist in the welds of small diameter pipe, the natural frequency of the pipe changes and resonance may occur. Since these resonances are likely to cause fatigue damage to the piping, resonance frequency changes due to the size and shape of the defects are analyzed and evaluated. As a result of the vibration test, the resonance frequency tended to decrease as the depth of the defect deepened, and the influence was larger when the defect existed at the bottom of the top of the trough. Also, it was confirmed that the Transverse cracks had an effect on the resonance frequency in the presence of the cracks in the weld bead, compared to the longitudinal cracks. As a result of this study, it is expected that the cause of the defect and the condition of the pipe can be monitored because the resonance frequency tendency according to the shape of the crack is analyzed.
