Technical Description
The technology relates to a guided-wave ultrasonic transducer for permanent high-temperature non-destructive evaluation. It uses a magnetostrictive amorphous metallic strip as the waveguide and selects a guided mode that concentrates stress near the centre of the strip for better signal transmission.
Problems Addressed
- Multiple Propagation Modes
- Low-frequency Limitations
- Signal Transmission Loss
- Long High-temperature Buffer Rods
- Poor Fit In Confined Spaces
Tech Features
- Impedance Matching
- Centred Mode Structure
- Magnetostrictive Strips
- Short Waveguide
- Comb Transduction
- Pulser-Receiver with Coils
Target Audience
- Oil, Gas, And Petrochemical Companies
- Power Generation Plants
- Railway And Civil Infrastructure
- Equipment Manufacturers
- Research Institutions
