| Popis: | In the determination of metal thickness by traditional electromagnetic nondestructive testing methods, the material’s electrical conductivity and magnetic permeability are required but practically unavailable or inexact. In this paper, a wall-thinning measuring method based on magnetic permeability variation of steel pipes is proposed. The direct current magnetization is applied to the ferromagnetic material, the internal magnetic field perturbation caused by the wall-thinning brings the permeability perturbation in the surface layer and be sensed by eddy current probe. The simulation results show that the permeability perturbation is closely related to wall thickness loss. The experiment results show that the signal amplitude increases with the thickness of the wall-thinning and the new method can measure the 10% wall-thinning of pipe. Finally, theoretical range of magnetization current values are discussed. The new method takes advantage of the changes in permeability and is not limited by thickness of object to be detected. |
