Non-destructive techniques are used widely in the metal industry in order to control the quality of materials. Eddy current testing(ECT) is one of the most extensively used non-destructive techniques for inspecting electrically conductive materials at very high speeds that does not require any contact between the test piece and the sensor. The New ECT sensor which can detect inner defects was developed regardless the condition of surface. This sensor is verified to do experiment which measure the loss of induced electromotive force. The loss of induced electromotive force was measured in 5.4% and this low frequency ECT device can detect internal defects at depth 20 mm.

Steam generator (SG) tubes are expanded inside tubesheet holes by using explosive or hydraulic methods to be fixed in a tubesheet. In the tube expansion process, it is important to minimize the crevice gap between expanded tube and tube sheet. In this paper, absolute and differential signals are computed by a numerical method for several different locations of tube expansion inside and outside a tubesheet and signal variations due to tubesheet, tube expansion and operating frequencies are observed. Results show that low frequency is good for detecting tubesheet location in both types of signals and high frequency is suitable for sizing of tube diameter as well as the detection of transition region. Also learned is that the absolute signal is good for measuring tube diameter, while the differential signal is good for locating the top of tubesheet and both ends of the transition region. In the case of mingled anomaly with tube expansion and tubesheet, low frequency inspection is found to be useful to analyze the mixed signal.

선내 소음은 선원의 거주성과 건강을 위한 중요한 요소 중의 하나로, 선내 소음을 줄이기 위한 노력이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 소음 저감 방법에는 수동소음제어(PNC) 방법과 능동소음제어(ANC) 방법이 있다. 자동차, 항공기와 달리 선박에서는 ANC를 이용한 소음 저감 대책이 미미한 실정이다. 본 연구는 능동소음제어(ANC)와 같이 방음판과 고주파진동원을 이용하여 기관실에 발생한 소음을 줄이고자 하였다. 이를 위해 아크릴 상자를 이용하여 실험 모형을 만들었고, 4가지 조건별로 소음 저감 효과를 측정하였다. 실험 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 방음판은 55 dB ~ 85 dB까지 모든 범위에서 소음 저감 효과가 있었다. 고주파진동원은 낮은 소음에서 효과가 없었으나, 70.8 dB(A)과 85 dB(A)와 같은 높은 소음에서는 효과가 있었다. 둘째, 방음판과 고주파진동원을 동시에 사용하는 경우에는 최대 -2.2 dB(A) 만큼의 소음 저감 효과가 있었다. 본 실험의 결과는 아크릴판으로 제작한 실험모형에서 얻은 결과로 철판으로 된 실제 선박과 다를 수 있다. 추후 연구에서 실제 선박에서 사용하는 철판(재질과 두께, 구조를 고려)을 이용하여 실험하고자 한다. 이 연구가 선박에 승선하는 선원들의 거주성 향상과 건강 증진에 도움이 되기를 기대한다.
