13、1 All rights reservedForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a

14、subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission

15、 (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical com

16、mittees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not

17、 be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 10830 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 20, Aircraft and space vehicles, Subcommittee SC 14, Space systems and operations. BS ISO 10830:2011ISO 10830:2011(E) ISO 2011 All rights reserved vIntroduction In February 2000,

18、the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (now Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) launched an M-V-4 rocket that experienced an unexpected failure. An intensive post-flight study was carried out. It was finally concluded that the failure originated from the fracture of a nozzle throat insert

19、made of graphite1. Then, a study of non-destructive inspection was initiated, and the ultrasonic inspection method specified in this International Standard was developed for use on the throat inserts of solid rocket motors. Graphite materials have been utilized without quantitative non-destructive i

20、nspection in many applications, except for one example of the core structure of the High Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR) of the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute2. There, planar flaws perpendicular to the top, bottom or side surfaces in a cylindrical ingot were targeted. However, fo

21、r aerospace applications, it is necessary to detect internal planar flaws oriented in various directions. The method is based on a single-probe, pulse-echo and immersion technique utilizing normal and angle-beam techniques to detect internal planar flaws oriented in various directions. The wave velo

22、city and the attenuation coefficient in the test object are measured before inspection to determine the differences in acoustic properties from ingot to ingot. Incident-angle scanning is adopted in addition to the common beam-axis scanning to detect flaws that can be oriented in various directions.

23、This inspection technique is necessary for inspection of sintered materials in general, including ceramics, and not only for graphite used in solid rocket motors. The method was first published as JIS Z 23563in 2006 by the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee. BS ISO 10830:2011BS ISO 10830:2011IN
