Magnetic flux leakage testing (MFLT) is an important nondestructive testing method for the detection and evaluation of defects in magnetic materials. Magnetic field distribution in an MFLT system is usually simulated by the finite element method (FEM), which required large memory, high computation, and complication of the meshing process. In this paper, an alternative simulation method will be proposed using a deep neural network (DNN). The DNN method provides an easy way of simulation by feeding only the distribution of supplied current and the physical properties such as magnetic permeability without the need for the meshing process. Defects with arbitrary sizes were simulated under... |
In this paper, a nondestructive inspection system is proposed to detect and quantitatively evaluate the size of the near- and far-side damages on the tube, membrane, and weld of the water-cooled wall in the fluidized bed boiler. The shape and size of the surface damages can be evaluated from the magnetic flux density distribution measured by the magnetic sensor array on one side from the center of the magnetizer. The magnetic sensors were arrayed on a curved shape probe according to the tube’s cross-sectional shape, membrane, and weld. On the other hand, the couplant was doped to the water-cooled wall, and a thin film was formed thereon by polyethylene terephthalate. Then, the measure... |
