Topic: New Phased Array Application for Inspection of Contact Point Corrosion on Piping
Presenters: Paul Holloway (Holloway NDT & Engineering Inc.)
Abstract:
Inspection of contact point corrosion has been a longstanding challenge in NDT. Pipe resting on supports often exhibits corrosion at the touch point which due to limited access cannot be inspected by traditional direct methods. Numerous techniques have been developed and deployed over the past 20 years to address this challenge including piezoelectric and EMAT ultrasonic methods. Recent research into the application of phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT), developed as the PA-CATTM technique, provides a robust, effective solution which utilizes existing PAUT instrument, probes, and scanners.
