This article deals with non-destructive testing of conductive materials by eddy current method based on swept frequency. A 2D numerical model of eddy current air-core probe was created in the LTspice software at first. The probe consists of two coils: exciting coil and receiving. The probe is positioned in air in this case. Experimental and calculated frequency responses of the probe are obtained within a wide frequency range using swept frequency in order to validate the model. Frther a 3D model used for non-destructive testing of austenitic steel plate with three electro-discharge machined notches is then developed accordingly. Results of measurement are compared with 3D numerical model using COMSOL Multiphysics software.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
