25、84 Standard Test Method for Knoop and Vickers Hardness of Materials SAE INTERNATIONAL AIR4777B Page 4 of 9 3.1 Liquid Penetrant Inspection Liquid penetrant inspection is a nondestructive method of revealing discontinuities that are open to the surfaces of solid and essentially nonporous materials. I

26、ndication of a wide spectrum of flaw sizes can be found regardless of the configuration of the workpiece and regardless of the flaw orientation. Liquid penetrants are drawn into various types of minute surface openings by capillary action. This process is well suited to the detection of many surface

27、 breaking flaws such as cracks, laps, porosity, shrinkage areas, laminations, and similar discontinuities. It is extensively used for the inspection of wrought and cast products of both ferrous and nonferrous metals. In practice, the liquid penetrant process is relatively simple to use and control.

28、The equipment used in liquid penetrant inspection can vary from an arrangement of simple tanks containing penetrant, emulsifier, and developer to sophisticated computer-controlled automated processing and inspection systems. Optimum end results require that the surfaces of parts subjected to liquid

29、penetrant examination be adequately cleaned and free of contaminants that may prevent the penetrant from being drawn into surface breaking flaws. NOTE: Due to the service environment of aircraft wheels and brakes, extensive cleaning is required to ensure reliable liquid penetrant inspection. Cleanin

30、g procedures which outline the most effective methods and products available are contained in the wheel and brake component maintenance manuals. Particular caution should be exercised against over washing during the penetrant removal process and the very undesirable potential of smearing metal over

31、cracks during paint removal or repair operations. The major limitation of liquid penetrant inspection is that it can detect only imperfections that are open to the surface. Other methods must be used for detecting subsurface flaws. Factors that can limit the use of liquid penetrants are significant

32、surface roughness or porosity. Such surfaces produce excessive background signals which interfere with inspection. For example, anodized surfaces can generate a significant amount of background noise and potentially mask small indications. 3.2 Magnetic Particle Inspection Magnetic particle inspectio

33、n is a method of locating surface and subsurface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials. When the material or part under test is magnetized, magnetic discontinuities that lie in a direction generally transverse to the direction of the magnetic field will cause a leakage field to be formed at and

34、 above the surface of the part. The presence of this leakage field and, therefore, the presence of the discontinuity, is detected by the use of finely divided ferromagnetic particles applied over the surface, with some of the particles being gathered and held by the leakage field. This magnetically

35、held collection of particles forms an outline of the discontinuity and generally indicates its location, size,shape, and depth. The magnetic particle method is a sensitive means of locating small and shallow surface cracks in ferromagnetic materials. Discontinuities that do not actually break throug

36、h the surface are also indicated in many cases by this method, although certain limitations must be recognized and understood. If a discontinuity is fine, sharp, and close to the surface, such as a long stringer of nonmetallic inclusions, a clear indication can be produced. If the discontinuity lies

37、 deeper, the indication will be less distinct. The deeper the discontinuity lies below the surface, the larger it must be to yield a discernible indication. Magnetic particle indications are produced directly on the surface of the part and constitute magnetic pictures of actual discontinuities. Skil

38、led operators can sometimes make a reasonable estimate of crack depth with suitable powders and proper technique. Occasional monitoring of field intensity in the part is needed to ensure adequate field strength. There is little or no limitation on the size or shape of the part being inspected. The s

39、urfaces of parts subjected to magnetic particle inspection must be adequately cleaned to ensure that the particles are sufficiently mobile to accumulate at magnetic field leakage sites and not form false indications. SAE INTERNATIONAL AIR4777B Page 5 of 9 There are certain limitations to magnetic pa

40、rticle inspection. For example: a. Thin coatings of paint and other nonmagnetic coverings, such as plating, may adversely affect the sensitivity of magnetic particle inspection. b. The method can be used only on ferromagnetic materials. c. For best results, the magnetic field must be in a direction

41、that will intercept the principal plane of the discontinuity; thissometimes requires two or more sequential inspections with different magnetizations. d. Demagnetization following inspection is often necessary. e. Post-cleaning to remove remnants of the magnetic particles clinging to the surface may

42、 sometimes be required after testing and demagnetization. f. Exceedingly large currents are sometimes needed for very large parts. g. Care is necessary to avoid local heating and burning of finished parts or surfaces at the points of electrical contact. h. Although magnetic particle indications are

43、easily seen, experience and skill are sometimes needed to judge their significance.3.3 Eddy Current Inspection Eddy current inspection is based on the principles of electromagnetic induction and is used to identify or differentiate among a wide variety of physical, structural, and metallurgical cond

44、itions in electrically conductive ferromagnetic and nonferromagnetic metals and metal parts. Eddy current inspection can be used to: a. Measure or identify such conditions and properties as electrical conductivity, magnetic permeability, grain size, heat treatment condition, hardness, and physical d

45、imensions. b. Detect seams, laps, cracks, voids, and inclusions. c. Sort dissimilar metals and detect differences in their composition, microstructure, and other properties. d. Measure the thickness of a nonconductive coating on a conductive metal, or the thickness of a nonmagnetic metal coating on

46、a magnetic metal. Because eddy currents are created using an electromagnetic induction technique, the inspection method does not require direct electrical contact with the part being inspected. The eddy current method is adaptable to high-speed inspection and, because it is absolutely nondestructive

47、, can be used to inspect an entire production output if desired. The method is based on indirect measurement, and the correlation between the instrument readings and the structural characteristics and serviceability of the parts being inspected must be carefully and repeatedly established. Eddy curr

48、ent inspection is extremely versatile, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. The advantage is that the method can be applied to many inspection problems provided the physical requirements of the material are compatible with the inspection method. In many applications, however, the sensitivi

49、ty of the method to the many properties and characteristics inherent within a material can be a disadvantage; some variables in a material that are not important in terms of material or part serviceability may cause instrument signals that mask critical variables or are mistakenly interpreted to be caused by critical variables. Each eddy current inspection must seek to control all the variables except those which the inspection is intended to
