Non-destructive testing of welds Display features in welds

1 Scope

This standard specifies how to characterize internal displays, ie classify them as planar or non-planar. This standard also applies to the display exposed on the surface of the weld after removal of the weld height.

3 principles

Classify the display as flat or non-planar based on the following parameters. a) welding technology; b) the geometric position of the display; c) the maximum echo amplitude; d) directional reflection; e) static echo waveform (eg A-scan); f) Dynamic echo waveform. Taking into account each of the above parameters, accurate classification results will be obtained. As a guide, Figure A.1 gives a classification of the internal display of welds suitable for routine applications. Figure A.1 should incorporate the first two listed above. The parameters are applied and cannot be examined separately. The classification process specified in this standard is also suitable for removing the classification displayed on the surface of the weld after the weld height is removed (see Figure 1). The unit is mm Description. A---flattened weld. Figure 1 shows the position in the weld

4 guidelines

4.1 Overview The display is sorted in order by the following criteria. a) echo amplitude; b) directional reflection; c) static echo waveform (A-scan); d) Dynamic echo waveform. The above criteria can be implemented through a flow chart (see Appendix A). When judging and characterizing the display, it is recommended to use the same probe. The flow chart will show the classification system standardization. Pass and distance Several thresholds (in decibels) compared to the amplitude curve (DAC) or compared to the maximum echo amplitude from different directions in discontinuities Said). The thresholds used in the different steps in the flow chart are shown in Table A.1. The flow chart is divided into 5 steps. a) Step 1.Very low echo amplitude display, no classification; b) Step 2.High echo amplitude display, classified as flat; c) Step 3.The main classification is not fused; d) Step 4.Mainly classify inclusions; e) Step 5.Mainly classify cracks. Note. According to the flow chart, the hybrid display that exists between the inclusions and the unfused contract is classified as a flat type. An example of this type of injury is shown in Figure A.2. 4.2 Echo amplitude criteria (steps 1 and 2) 4.2.1 Low echo amplitude (step 1) The echo amplitude is lower than the rating specified in ISO 11666 (defined as T1 in Figure A.1). The display is irrelevant and should not be performed. The levy can be accepted. For special applications, the T1 value can be reduced if specified in the technical agreement. 4.2.2 High echo amplitude (step 2) The echo amplitude is not less than the display level of 6dB (defined as T2 in Figure A.1), and the classification is displayed. 4.3 Directional Reflection Guidelines (Step 3) 4.3.1 Determination of applicability based on display length Step 3 in the flowchart should only be used to display longer than. a) t, 8mm ≤ plate thickness t ≤ 15mm; b) t/2 or 15mm, whichever is greater, when the thickness is t >15mm. If there is no display exceeding the above specified length, proceed as in step 4. 4.3.2 Application conditions Perform the following application conditions. a) the echoes compared should be from the same reflector; b) The echo comparison should be made when the displayed echo reaches the highest position Hd,max; c) When using both straight and oblique probes, select the appropriate probe frequency so that the wavelengths of the shear and longitudinal waves are approximately equal (eg 4MHz longitudinal wave and 2MHz transverse wave); d) When using two or more oblique probes, the difference between the nominal refraction angles should be greater than or equal to 10°; e) If the echo passing through the weld is compared to the echo only through the parent metal, the attenuation in the weld should be considered. 4.3.3 Guidelines For the same display, compare the highest echo amplitude Hd,max with the lowest echo amplitude Hd,min obtained from other directions. To meet directional reflection, the following conditions should be met. a) Hd,max≥T3 (reference level -6dB); b) The difference between the displayed echo amplitudes obtained from 2 different directions |Hd,max-Hd,min|, at least. 1) 9dB, only with a transverse wave oblique probe, or 2) 15dB, with 1 transverse wave oblique probe and 1 longitudinal wave straight probe. Directional reflection depends on the angle of refraction and the detection conditions (half span, full span). For an example of different detection directions, see Figure B.1. For an example of applying this guideline, see Figure B.2. 4.4 Static Echo Waveform Guidelines (Step 4) In this step, the static echo waveform of the displayed static echo waveform (for example. A-scan) and the reference reflector (3 mm diameter transverse hole) Compare. If the static echo waveform is single and smooth, the display is classified as non-planar. If the static echo waveform is neither single nor smooth, proceed as in step 5. It should be tested in at least 2 directions to comply with this Code. 4.5 Lateral Dynamic Echo Waveform Guidelines (Step 5) The displayed horizontal dynamic echo waveform is the echo obtained when the probe moves in the direction perpendicular to the display length according to ISO 17640. Envelope. In the analysis, not only the envelope but also the echo changes in the envelope should be considered. The classification shown depends on the waveform obtained. a) Waveform 1.a single non-planar display; b) waveform 2.a non-planar display that does not belong to waveform 1; c) Waveform 3 and Waveform 4.Flat display, if the highest reflection in 2 directions is observed, or if only 1 reflection is observed To, use additional testing (see 4.6); d) Waveform 5.Dense non-planar display. The waveform classification rules are given in Appendix C. It should be tested in at least 2 directions to comply with this Code. 4.6 Additional testing Perform additional tests if there is suspicion, such as. a) increase the direction of reflection or the probe; b) Analyze the echo envelope obtained when the probe is moved parallel to the display length. [See Figure C.1c), Figure C.2c), Figure C.3c), Figure C.4c) and Figure C.5c)]; c) Results obtained using other non-destructive testing methods (eg radiographic testing). The items listed above are not restricted.

Step 1 (T1, for example rating). When all echo amplitudes ≤ T1 are displayed, they are not classified. Step 2 (T2, for example, reference level 6 dB). When the display reaches at least 2 times the reference echo, it is classified as a flat type. Step 3 (T3, for example, reference level -6dB). When the displayed echo amplitude is at least half of the reference echo, and the reflected echo amplitude difference Greater than or equal to T4, classified as a flat display. --- When both probes are used for shear wave detection, T4 = 9dB; ---When one probe is used for transverse wave detection and the other probe is for longitudinal wave detection, T4=15dB; The angle of the ultrasound beam incident on the display should be at least 10° apart. The comparison should be made in the same area shown. Steps 4 and 5.Compliance with this Code should be performed in at least 2 directions. Step 5.If the dynamic echo waveform does not match the graph 3, it is classified as non-planar. See Appendix C for definitions of echo waveforms. The mixed type display of inclusions and unmelted contracts is classified into a flat type in the flow chart, as shown in Figure A.2.

Type 1.The probe beam is approximately perpendicular to the reflector, as shown in Figure C.3.When the probe is in any position, the A type is displayed as a single Jagged echoes. When the probe moves, A sweeps back a significant ( >±6dB) random echo amplitude change.
