The most significant difference is thatphased-array systems form the transmitted ultrasonic pulse byconstructive phase interfere

Varying the number ofelements used and the delay time bet

Depending on the probedesign, it is possible to electronically vary the angle (incidentor skew), or the focal distance, or the beam dimensions, or acombination of the three. In the receiving mode, acousticenergy is received by the elements a

19、nd the signals undergo asummation process utilizing the same type of time delayprocess as was used during transmission.4.3 The degree of beam steering available is dependent onseveral parameters including; number of elements, pitch of theelement spacing, element dimensions, element array shape,reson

Significance and Use5.1 This guide is intended to evaluate performance assess-ment of combinations of phased-array probes and instruments.It is not intended to define perf

25、d-array test system itself. It isintended for phased-array flaw detection instruments operatingin the nominal frequency range of 1 MHz to 20 MHz, but theprocedures are applicable to measurements on instrumentsutilizing significantly higher frequency components.5.3 This guide is not intended for serv

26、ice calibration, ormaintenance of circuitry for which the manufacturers instruc-tions are available.5.4 Implementation of specific assessments may requiremore detailed procedural instructions in a format of the usingfacility.5.5 The measurement data obtained may be employed byusers of this guide to

27、specify, describe, or provide a perfor-mance criteria for procurement and quality assurance, orservice evaluation of the operating characteristics of phased-array systems.5.6 Not all assessments described in this guide are appli-cable to all systems. All or portions of the guide may be usedas determ

Procedure6.1 Procedures for assessment of several parameters inphased-array systems are described in Annexes A1 to A7.6.1.1 These include; determination of beam profile, beamsteering capability, element activity, focusing capability, soft-ware calculations (controls and display o

30、is annex describes procedures to determine beamprofiles of phased-array probes. Either immersion or contactprobe applications can be addressed using these procedures.However, it should be cautioned that assessments of contactprobes may suffer from variability greater than imposedtolerances if proper

31、 precautions are not taken to ensureconstant coupling conditions.A1.2 Test SetupA1.2.1 For single focal laws where the beam is fixed (thatis, not used in an electronic or sectorial scan mode) and theprobe is used in an immersion setup, the ball-target orhydrophone options described in E1065 may be u

32、sed. Forphased array probes used in a dynamic fashion where severalfocal laws are used to produce sectorial or electronic scanningit may be possible to make beam-profile assessments with no orlittle mechanical motion. Where mechanical motion is used itshall be encoded to relate signal time and ampli

33、tude to distancemoved. Encoder accuracy shall be verified to be withintolerances appropriate for the measurements made. Descrip-tions made for electronic scan and sectorial scan beam profileassessments will be made for contact probes; however, whenassessment in water is required the machined targets

34、 may bereplaced with rods or balls as appropriate.A1.2.2 Linear-Array ProbesLinear-array probes have anactive plane and an inactive or passive plane. Assessment ofthe beam in the active plane should be made by use of anelectronic scan sequence for probes with sufficient number ofelements to electron

35、ically advance the beam past the targets ofinterest. For phased array probes using a large portion of theavailable elements to form the beam the number of remainingelements for the electronic raster may be too small to allow thebeam to pass over the target. In this case it will be necessary tohave e

36、ncoded mechanical motion and assess each focal lawalong the active plane separately.A1.2.3 Side-drilled holes should be arranged at variousdepths in a flaw-free sample of the test material in which focallaws have been programmed for. Using the linear scan featureof the phased-array system the beam i

37、s passed over the targetsat the various depths of interest. The electronic scan isillustrated schematically in Fig. A1.1.A1.2.4 Data collection of the entire waveform over therange of interest shall be made. The display shall representamplitude as a color or grayscale. Time or equivalent distancein

38、the test material shall be presented along one axis anddistance displaced along the other axis. This is a typical B-scanas illustrated in Fig. A1.2.A1.2.5 Data display for an electronic scan using a phased-array probe mounted on a wedge can be similarly made usingsimple orthogonal representation of

39、time versus displacementor it can be angle corrected as illustrated in Fig. A1.3.A1.2.6 Resolution along the displacement axis will be afunction of the step size of the electronic scan or, if the scanuses an encoded mechanical fixture the resolution will bedependent on the encoder step-size used for

40、 sampling.A1.2.7 Resolution along the beam axis will be a function ofthe intervals between the target paths. For highly focusedbeams it may be desirable to have small differences betweenthe sound paths to the target paths (for example, 1 mm or 2mm).A1.2.8 Beam profiling in the passive plane can also

41、 bemade. The passive plane in a linear-array probe is perpendicu-lar to the active plane and refers to the plane in which no beamsteering is possible by phasing effects. Beam profiling in thepassive direction will require mechanical scanning.FIG. A1.1 Electronic Scan of Side Drilled HolesE2491 133A1

42、.2.9 Waveform collection of signals using a combinationof electronic scanning in the active plane and encoded me-chanical motion in the passive plane provides data that can beprojection-corrected to provide beam dimensions in the passiveplane.

47、s annex describes procedures to determine prac-tical limits for beam steering capabilities of a phased-arrayprobe and as such applies to the active plane(s) only. Eitherimmersion or contact probe applications can be addressedusing these procedures. However, it should be cautioned thatassessments of

48、contact probes may suffer from variabilitygreater than imposed tolerances if proper precautions are nottaken to ensure constant coupling conditions.A2.1.2 Recommended limits to establish the working rangeof angular sweep of a phased-array probe relate to thedivergence of the beam of each element in

49、the probe array.When used in pulse-echo mode the steering limit is consideredto be within the 6-dB divergence envelope of the individualelements. It is therefore possible to calculate a theoretical limitbased on nominal frequency and manufacturer provided infor-mation on the element dimensions. However, several param-eters can affect the theoretical calculations. These are primarilyrelated to the nominal frequency of the probe. Some param-eters affecting actual frequency include; pulse length, damping,use of a delay-line or refracting wedge and variations inmanufacturing pro
