The methodical and physical bases of the use of active thermography as a high-performance non-destructive method of control and defectoscopy of materials during thermovision monitoring of technological equipment at NPP objects are considered. The data of experimental research confirm the efficiency of the use of thermal and low-frequency electromagnetic activators in the thermographic defectoscopy. The features of the application of dynamic thermography and the influence of external activation sources on the thermal appearance of structural inhomogeneities and defects in materials are investigated. It is shown that the application of special methods of processing thermal images that take into account the amplitude-frequency and morphological features of thermoanomalies, allows to control the thermal display of energy-absorbing structures and defects, provide the possibility of their identification against the background of false thermoanomalies.
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.
