Terminology3.1 Complete definitions of terms related to plastics andacoustic emission will be found in Terminology D883 andE1316.3.2 Defin

17、itions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 FRPfiberglass reinforced plastic, a glass-fiber poly-mer composite with certain mechanical properties superior tothose of the base resin.3.2.2 operating pressurethe pressure at the top of a vesselat which it normally operates. It shall not exceed the d

19、 analyzes AE waveforms.(See Section 7 and A1.8.)3.2.5 summing amplifier (summer, mixer)an operationalamplifier that produces an output signal equal to a weightedsum of the input signals.3.2.6 zonethe area surrounding a sensor from which AEcan be detected by that sensor.4. Summary of Practice4.1 This

20、 practice consists of subjecting equipment to in-creasing pressure or vacuum while monitoring with sensorsthat are sensitive to acoustic emission (transient stress waves)caused by growing flaws. The instrumentation and techniquesfor sensing and analyzing AE data are described.4.2 This practice provi

21、des guidelines to determine the loca-tion and severity of structural flaws in FRP equipment.4.3 This practice provides guidelines forAE examination ofFRP equipment within the pressure range stated in 1.2.Maximum test pressure (or vacuum) for an FRP vessel will bedetermined upon agreement among user,

22、 manufacturer, or testagency, or a combination thereof. Pressure vessels will nor-mally be tested to 1.1 operating pressure. Atmospheric stor-age vessels and vacuum vessels will normally be tested undermaximum operating conditions. Vessels will normally be testedat ambient temperature. In the case o

23、f elevated operatingtemperature the test may be performed either at operating orambient temperature. The test temperature must be below theglass transition temperature of the resin.5. Significance and Use5.1 The AE examination method detects damage in FRPequipment. The damage mechanisms that are det

24、ected in FRPare as follows: resin cracking, fiber debonding, fiber pullout,fiber breakage, delamination, and bond failure in assembledjoints (for example, nozzles, manways, and so forth). Flaws inunstressed areas and flaws that are structurally insignificantwill not generate AE.5.2 This practice is

25、convenient for on-line use under oper-ating stress to determine structural integrity of in-serviceequipment usually with minimal process disruption.5.3 Indications located with AE should be examined byother techniques; for example, visual, ultrasound, dyepenetrant, and so forth, and may be repaired

26、and tested asappropriate. Repair procedure recommendations are outsidethe scope of this practice.6. Basis of Application6.1 The following items are subject to contractual agree-ment between the parties using or referencing this practice:6.2 Personnel Qualification:6.2.1 If specified in the contractu

30、n criteria shall be in accordance with 9.2 unlessotherwise specified.6.6 Reporting Criteria/Acceptance CriteriaReporting cri-teria for the examination results shall be in accordance withSection 13 unless otherwise specified. Since acceptance criteriaare not specified in this practice, they shall be

31、specified in thecontractual agreement.7. Instrumentation7.1 The AE instrumentation consists of sensors, signalprocessors, and recording equipment. Additional informationon AE instrumentation can be found in Practice E750.7.2 Instrumentation shall be capable of recording AE hits,signal strength and h

32、it duration and have sufficient channels tolocalize AE sources in real time. It may incorporate (as anoption) peak-amplitude detection for each input channel or forgroups of channels. Hit detection is required for each channel.An AE hit amplitude measurement is recommended for sensi-tivity verificat

33、ion (see Annex A2). Amplitude distributions arerecommended for flaw characterization. It is preferred that AEinstrumentation acquire and record duration hit and amplitudeinformation on a per channel basis. The AE instrumentation isfurther described in Annex A1.7.3 Capability for measuring parameters

34、 such as time andpressure shall be provided. The pressure-vacuum in the vesselshould be continuously monitored to an accuracy of 62%ofthe maximum test value.E1067/E1067M 1827.4 Lockouts and Guard SensorsThese techniques shallnot be used.7.5 Instrument Displays- The instrumentation shall becapable of

35、 providing the following real time displays:7.5.1 Bar Chart by Channel of Cumulative SignalStrengthEnables the examiner to identify which channel isrecording the most data.7.5.2 Amplitude per Hit Versus TimeProvides the exam-iner with early warning of an impending failure (see Reference(1).7.5.3 Dur

36、ation per Hit Versus TimeUseful for identifyingrubbing or sliding (see Reference (1).7.5.4 Log Duration (or Counts) per Hit Versus Amplitudeper HitHelps the examiner determine the presence of falseemission signals (see Reference (1).7.5.5 Cumulative Signal Strength per Channel VersusTimeUseful for i

37、dentifying certain types of instrument mal-functions; for example, continuous electronic noise will pro-duce a characteristically steady rise with time, unlike thestepwise rise associated with natural AE.7.6 Cumulative Amplitude Distribution, or a tabular listingby channel number of total hits equal

38、 to and greater thandefined amplitude values. Tabular amplitude values shall be inincrements of not greater than 5 dB and shall be for at least a35 dB range beginning at the threshold.These displays are usedto provide warning of significant fiber breakage of the type thatcan lead to sudden structura

39、l failure. The displays also provideinformation about the micromechanisms giving rise to theemission and warn of potential instrument malfunction.8. Examination Preparations8.1 SafetyAll plant safety requirements unique to theexamination location shall be met.8.1.1 Protective clothing and equipment

40、that is normallyrequired in the area in which the examination is beingconducted shall be worn.8.1.2 A fire permit may be needed to use the electronicinstrumentation.8.1.3 Precautions shall be taken to protect against theconsequences of catastrophic failure when pressure testing, forexample, flying d

41、ebris and impact of escaping liquid. Pressur-izing under pneumatic conditions is not recommended exceptwhen normal service loads include either a superposed gaspressure or gas pressure only. Care shall be taken to avoidoverstressing the lower section of the vessel when liquid testloads are used to s

42、imulate operating gas pressures.8.1.4 Special safety precautions shall be taken when pneu-matic testing is required; for example, safety valves, and soforth.8.2 Vessel ConditioningThe operating conditions for ves-sels that have been stressed previously shall be reduced prior toexamining in accordanc

43、e with the schedule shown in Table 1.Table 1 is used as follows. The planned reduced pressure isexpressed as a percentage of the maximum operating pressureor load in the vessel during the past year (the latter must beknown in order to conduct the AE examination properly).Looking for this percentage

44、in the first column of Table 1, thecorresponding row in the second column shows the time thatmust be spent at the reduced pressure, to condition the vesselprior to making an AE test. When the percentage falls betweentwo values in the first column, the higher value is used.8.3 Vessel StressingArrange

45、ments should be made tostress the vessel as prescribed in 4.3. The stress rate shall besufficient to expedite the examination with minimum extrane-ous noise. Holding stress levels is a key aspect of an acousticemission examination. Accordingly, provision must be madefor holding the pressure-load at

46、designated check points.8.3.1 Atmospheric TanksProcess liquid is the preferred fillmedium for atmospheric tanks. If water must replace theprocess liquid, the designer and user shall be in agreement onthe procedure to achieve acceptable stress levels.8.3.2 Vacuum-Tank StressingA controllable vacuum-p

47、ump system is required for vacuum tanks.8.3.3 Pressure-Vessel StressingWater is the preferred me-dium for pressure tanks. Safe means for hydraulically increas-ing the pressure under controlled conditions shall be provided.8.4 Tank SupportThe tank shall be examined in its oper-ating position and supp

48、orted in a manner consistent with goodinstallation practice. Flat-bottomed tanks examined in otherthan the intended location shall be mounted on a pad (forexample, rubber on a concrete base or equivalent) to reducestructure-borne noise between the tank and base.8.5 EnvironmentalThe normal minimum ac

49、ceptable ves-sel wall temperature is 4C 40F.8.6 Noise ReductionNoise sources in the examinationfrequency and amplitude range, such as rain, spargers, andforeign objects contacting the tank, must be minimized sincethey mask the AE signals emanating from the structure. Theinlet should be at the lowest nozzle or as near to the bottom ofthe vessel as possible, that is, below the liquid level. Liquidfalling, swirling, or splashing can invalidate data obtainedduring the filling phase. However, this needs to be addressedby appropriate data filteri
