高提离距离的横波电磁超声检测技术研究

为实现石油炼化厂区防爆环境下管道厚度的在线无损检测，通过磁场聚焦和线圈优化等设计，研制了高提离距离的横波电磁超声无损检测系统。实验中分别对厚度22 mm的标准试块和12.16 mm的管道进行了检测，结果表明，在提离距离6 mm以内，该研究能够满足炼化厂区的管道厚度检测需求，为电磁超声检测技术通过防爆设计和认证提供了可能。

Investigation of pipe thickness monitoring using the shear wave EMAT technology with high lift off distance

To solve the problem of pipe thickness on line nondestructive testing in the explosive surroundings of oil refinery area, a novel EMAT system with maximum lift-off value of 6 mm has been developed in the way of focusing magnetic field and optimizing the testing coil. Experiment results show that the testing accuracy was less than 0.05 mm for standard test block with thickness of 22 mm and the serviced pipeline with thickness of 12.16 mm when the condition of lift off value was less than 6 mm. The developed EMAT system in this work can satisfy the requirement of pipeline thickness detection in the refining factory, which provides the ability of explosion proof design and certification for EMAT technology.
