30、l codes.7. Equipment and Materials7.1 Equipment:7.1.1 X-Radiation SourcesSelection of suitable X-ray machines will depend upon variables regarding the specimen beingexamined and the size and type of defects being sought. The suitability of an X-ray machine shall be demonstrated by attainmentof the r
31、equired radiographic quality level, radiographic contrast, and compliance with all other requirements stipulated in thisStandard.practice.7.1.1.1 Geometric magnification may be used with the following caveats and considerations: a) The higher the magnificationfactor used, the smaller the area of ins
32、pection becomes within the part that is normal to the radiation beam. This makes detectionof certain discontinuities, such as cracks that occupy a significant portion of the part thickness more challenging to detect. b)System spatial resolution increases with magnification, which can increase overal
33、l system sharpness. However, the maximummagnification allowed shall be based on the unsharpness requirements of Table 1. c) Contrast to Noise increases with greater objectto detector distance because less scatter radiation reaches the detector.(a) The higher the magnification factor used, the smalle
34、r the area of inspection becomes within the part that is normal to theradiation beam.This makes detection of certain discontinuities, such as cracks that occupy a significant portion of the part thicknessmore challenging to detect.(b) System spatial resolution increases with magnification, which can
35、 increase overall system sharpness. However, themaximum magnification allowed shall be based on the unsharpness requirements of Table 1.(c) Contrast to Noise increases with greater object-to-detector distance because less scatter radiation reaches the detector.7.1.1.2 When using magnification, the f
36、ocal spot size should be small enough to avoid unsharpness due to the size of the focalspot in accordance with section 8.58.5 herein. For evaluation of a proper focal spot size, refer to Guide E1000, subsection 11.3and Fig. 19.7.1.2 Gamma Radiation SourcesGamma radiation sources are generally not su
