Abstract:
In order to solve the problem that small defects hidden behind pipeline support parts are difficult to detect effectively in small spaces, such as offshore oil platforms, a meander-coil-type dual magnetic group circumferential magnetostrictive guided wave transducer is developed in this paper. The transducer, which consists of a coil, two sets of permanent magnets, and a magnetostrictive patch, can excite a high-frequency circumferential shear horizontal (CSH) guided wave. The energy conversion efficiency of the MPT is optimized through magnetic field simulation and experiment, and the amplitude of the defect signal is enhanced 1.9 times. The experimental results show that the MPT developed in this paper can effectively excite and receive CSH2 mode guided waves with a center frequency of 1.6 MHz. Compared with the traditional PPM EMAT transducer, the excitation energy of the transducer is significantly enhanced, and the defects of the 2 mm round hole at the back of the support can be effectively detected.
