1、Designation: E2982 14Standard Guide forNondestructive Testing of Thin-Walled Metallic Liners inFilament-Wound Pressure Vessels Used in AerospaceApplications1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2982; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adopt
2、ion or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide discusses current and potential nondestruc-tive testing (NDT)
3、procedures for finding indications of dis-continuities in thin-walled metallic liners in filament-woundpressure vessels, also known as composite overwrapped pres-sure vessels (COPVs). In general, these vessels have metallicliner thicknesses less than 2.3 mm (0.090 in.), and fiberloadings in the comp
4、osite overwrap greater than 60 percent byweight. In COPVs, the composite overwrap thickness will beof the order of 2.0 mm (0.080 in.) for smaller vessels, and upto 20 mm (0.80 in.) for larger ones.1.2 This guide focuses on COPVs with nonload sharingmetallic liners used at ambient temperature, which
5、mostclosely represents a Compressed Gas Association (CGA) TypeIII metal-lined COPV. However, it also has relevance to (1)monolithic metallic pressure vessels (PVs) (CGA Type I), and(2) metal-lined hoop-wrapped COPVs (CGA Type II).1.3 The vessels covered by this guide are used in aerospaceapplication
6、s; therefore, the examination requirements for dis-continuities and inspection points will in general be differentand more stringent than for vessels used in non-aerospaceapplications.1.4 This guide applies to (1) low pressure COPVs and PVsused for storing aerospace media at maximum allowableworking
7、 pressures (MAWPs) up to 3.5 MPa (500 psia) andvolumes up to 2 m3(70 ft3), and (2) high pressure COPVs usedfor storing compressed gases at MAWPs up to 70 MPa (10,000psia) and volumes down to 8000 cm3(500 in.3). Internalvacuum storage or exposure is not considered appropriate forany vessel size.1.5 T
8、he metallic liners under consideration include but arenot limited to ones made from aluminum alloys, titaniumalloys, nickel-based alloys, and stainless steels. In the case ofCOPVs, the composites through which the NDT interrogationmust be made after overwrapping include, but are not limitedto, vario
9、us polymer matrix resins (for example, epoxies,cyanate esters, polyurethanes, phenolic resins, polyimides(including bismaleimides), polyamides) with continuous fiberreinforcement (for example, carbon, aramid, glass, or poly-(phenylenebenzobisoxazole) (PBO).1.6 This guide describes the application of
10、 established NDTprocedures; namely, Acoustic Emission (AE, Section 7), EddyCurrent Testing (ECT, Section 8), Laser Profilometry (LP,Section 9), Leak Testing (LT, Section 10), Penetrant Testing(PT, Section 11), and Radiologic Testing (RT, Section 12).These procedures can be used by cognizant engineer
11、ingorganizations for detecting and evaluating flaws, defects, andaccumulated damage in metallic PVs, the bare metallic liner ofCOPVs before overwrapping, and the metallic liner of new andin-service COPVs.1.7 Due to difficulties associated with inspecting thin-walled metallic COPV liners through comp
12、osite overwraps,and the availability of the NDE methods listed in Section 1.6 toinspect COPV liners before overwrapping and metal PVs,ultrasonic testing (UT) is not addressed in this standard. UTmay still be performed as agreed upon between the supplierand customer. Ultrasonic requirements may utili
13、ze PracticeE2375 as applicable based upon the specific liner applicationand metal thickness. Alternate ultrasonic inspection methodssuch as Lamb wave, surface wave, shear wave, reflector plate,etc. may be established and documented per agreed uponcontractual requirements. The test requirements shoul
14、d bedeveloped in conjunction with the specific criteria defined byengineering analysis.1.8 In general, AE and PT are performed on the PV or thebare metallic liner of a COPV before overwrapping (in the caseof COPVs, AE is done before overwrapping to minimizeinterference from the composite overwrap).
15、ET, LT, and RT areperformed on the PV, bare metallic liner of a COPV beforeoverwrapping, or on the as-manufactured COPV. LP is per-formed on the inner and outer surfaces of the PV, or on theinner surface of the COPV liner both before and after over-wrapping. Furthermore, AE and RT are well suited fo

United States11.9 Wherever possible, the NDT procedures described shallbe sensitive enough to detect critical flaw sizes of the order of1.3 mm (0.050 in.) length with a 2:1 aspect

Significance and Use4.1 The COPVs covered in this guide consist of a metallicliner overwrapped with high-strength fibers embedded inpolymeric matrix resin (typ
43、ically a thermoset). Metallic linersmay be spun formed from a deep drawn/extruded monolithicblank or may be fabricated by welding formed components.Designers often seek to minimize the liner thickness in theinterest of weight reduction. COPV liner materials used can bealuminum alloys, titanium alloy
44、s, nickel-chromium alloys, andstainless steels, impermeable polymer liner such as highdensity polyethylene, or integrated composite materials. Fibermaterials can be carbon, aramid, glass, PBO, metals, or hybrids(two or more types of fiber). Matrix resins include epoxies,cyanate esters, polyurethanes
45、, phenolic resins, polyimides(including bismaleimides), polyamides and other high perfor-mance polymers. Common bond line adhesives are; FM-73,urethane, West 105, Epon 862 with thicknesses ranging from0.13 mm (0.005 in.) to 0.38 mm (0.015 in.). Metal liner andcomposite overwrap materials requirement
46、s are found inANSI/AIAA S-080 and ANSI/AIAA S-081, respectively. Pictures ofrepresentative COPVs are shown in E07s forthcoming Guidefor Nondestructive Testing of Composite Overwraps inFilament-Wound Pressure Vessels Used in Aerospace Applica-tions.4.2 The operative failure modes COPV metal liners an
47、dmetal PVs, in approximate order of likelihood, are: (a) fatiguecracking, (b) buckling, (c) corrosion, (d) environmentalcracking, and (e) overload.NOTE 2For launch vehicles and satellites, the strong drive to reduceweight has pushed designers to adopt COPVs with thinner metal liners.Unfortunately, t
48、his configuration is more susceptible to liner buckling. So,as a precursor to liner fatigue, attention should be paid to liner buckling.4.3 Per MIL-HDBK-340, the primary intended function ofCOPVs as discussed in this guide will be to store pressurizedgases and fluids where one or more of the followi

The followingrequirements also apply when implementing S-081:4.4.1 Maximum Design Pressure (MDP) shall be substitutedfor all references to Maximum Expected Operat
