25、E instrument and sensor checkout on FRP;6.7.4 Loading of FRP components for AE testing;6.7.5 Data collection and interpretation; and6.7.6 Examination report preparation.7. Apparatus7.1 Essential features of the apparatus required for thispractice are shown in Fig. 1. Specifications are provided onAn

26、nex A1.7.2 Couplant must be used to acoustically couple sensors tothe blade surface. Adhesives that have acceptable acousticproperties and ultrasonic couplants are acceptable.7.3 Sensors may be held in place with elastic straps,adhesive tape, or other mechanical means. (See Guide E650.)FIG. 1 Appara

27、tusE2076/E2076M 1527.4 Sensors are to be positioned on the fan mounting drivehub for background noise detection only; on the blade within150 mm 6 in. of the shank; on the blade midway between theshank and the blade tip; and within 150 mm 6 in. of the bladetip for background noise detection only. Add

28、itional sensorsmay be added when more complete coverage is desired.NOTE 1The sensors indicated in Fig. 1 may be placed on either the topor bottom surface of the blade.7.5 Instrumentation shall be capable of recording AE hitsabove a low-amplitude threshold, AE hits above a high-amplitude threshold (b

29、oth within a specific frequency range)and have sufficient channels to localizeAE sources in real time.(See Practice E750.) Hit detection is required for each channel.An AE hit amplitude measurement is recommended for sensi-tivity verification. Amplitude distributions are recommendedfor flaw characte

30、rization.7.6 Preamplifiers may be enclosed in the sensor housing orin a separate enclosure. If a separate preamplifier is used,sensor cable length, between the sensor and the preamplifier,must not result in a signal loss of greater than 3 dB. Typically,2 m 6 ft, is acceptable.7.7 Power/signal cable

31、length (between preamplifier andsignal processor) shall not result in a signal loss of greater than3 dB. Typically, 150 m 500 ft is acceptable.7.8 Signal processors are computerized instruments withindependent channels that filter, measure, and convert analoginformation into digital form for display

32、 and permanent stor-age. A signal processor must have sufficient speed and capa-bility to independently process data from all sensors simulta-neously. The signal processor should provide capability to filterdata for replay.7.9 A video monitor is used to display processed data invarious formats. Disp

33、lay format may be selected by theexaminer.7.10 A data storage device, such as a hard disk, is used tostore data for replay and archiving.7.11 Hard-copy capability should be available from a graph-ics printer or equivalent device.8. Safety Precautions8.1 SafetyAll site safety requirements unique to t

34、he testlocation shall be met.9. Calibration and Verification9.1 Annual calibration and verification of AE sensors,preamplifiers, if applicable, signal processor, andAE electronicwaveform generator should be performed. Equipment shouldbe adjusted so that it conforms to the equipment manufactur-ers sp

35、ecifications. Instruments used for calibration must havecurrent accuracy certification that is traceable to the NationalInstitute for Standards and Technology (NIST).9.2 Routine electronic evaluations must be performed on amonthly basis or at any time there is concern about signalprocessor performan

36、ce. An AE electronic waveform generatorshould be used in routine electronic checks. Each signalprocessor channel must respond with peak amplitude readingswithin 62dBAEof the electronic waveform generator output.9.3 Routine sensor evaluations must be performed on amonthly basis or at any time that th

37、ere is concern about thesensor performance. Peak amplitude response and electronicnoise level should be recorded. Sensors can be stimulated by apencil lead break in accordance with Guide E976. Sensorswhich are found to have peak amplitudes or electronic noisemore than 3 dB greater than the average o

38、f the group of sensorsto be used during the examination shall be replaced.9.4 A system verification must be conducted immediatelybefore and immediately after each examination. A systemverification utilizes a mechanical device to induce stress wavesinto the structure. The induced stress waves must be

39、 nonde-structive and simulate emission from a flaw. System perfor-mance checks verify the sensitivity of each system channel,including the couplant. See Guide E2374.9.4.1 The preferred technique for conducting a systemperformance check utilizes a pencil lead break. Lead should bebroken on the surfac

40、e (see Fig. 5 of Guide E976) at a specifieddistance, typically 100 mm 4 in. from the sensor.9.4.2 System channels which are found to have performanceoutside of specified values shall be repaired or replaced. Valuesshall be specified such that the sensitivity of channels used inthe same test differ b

41、y no more than 3 dB.10. Test Procedure10.1 General GuidelinesEach fan blade is subjected toprogrammed increasing tip load, up to a predetermined maxi-mum value (test load), while being monitored by sensors thatdetect acoustic emission (stress waves) caused by growingstructural flaws.10.1.1 Blade tip

42、 load shall be controlled so as to not exceeda load rate of 33 % of test load per minute.10.1.2 Background noise shall be minimized and identified.Excessive background noise is cause for suspension of theloading. In the analysis of examination results, backgroundnoise should be properly discounted,

43、if the source is deter-mined to be irrelevant to mechanical integrity.10.2 LoadingDetermine the test load from the blademanufacturers specifications. The blade may be loaded onceor twice depending upon the outcome of the first loading. If theacoustic emission activity generated by the first loading

44、ex-ceeds the criteria then an immediate second loading shall beapplied. If the blade meets the acceptance criteria on the firstloading then the second loading is not required. Fig. 2 showsthe recommended loading sequence. The following is a prac-tical way to achieve the desired blade tip load.10.2.1

45、 Secure the shank of the blade in an appropriateholder at its operating pitch (blade parallel to the floor). Thiswill usually be the blade manufacturers drive hub arrangement(see also Fig. 1).10.2.2 Suspend an empty water container at the tip end ofthe blade. Padding is recommended to reduce the pos

46、sibility ofextraneous noise and physical damage to the surface of theblade tip.E2076/E2076M 15310.2.3 Fill the water container with a sufficient amount ofwater to equal the maximum desired test load at the blade tip.For example, for a typical 25-kg 50-lb test load, the fillingrate should not exceed

47、7.5 L 2 gal/min (see 10.1.1).10.2.4 Hold the test load for two minutes and record testresults.10.2.5 Remove the load from the blade tip.10.2.6 Evaluate the acoustic emission activity in accordancewith Section 11. If the blade meets the acceptance criteria, nofurther testing is required. If it fails

48、to meet the criteria proceedwith steps 7 and 8.10.2.7 Immediately replace the empty water container andrefill the container with water equal to the maximum desiredtest load at the blade tip. Filling rate should not exceed therequirement in 10.1.1.10.2.8 Hold the test load for two minutes and record

49、testresults.10.3 Data RecordingThe following AE data are to berecorded for each blade examined by this procedure:10.3.1 Maximum dB during loading, or number of hitsabove the high-amplitude threshold. (See Practice E1067,Annex A2).10.3.2 Number of hits above the low-amplitude threshold(see Practice E1067, Annex A2) during two-minute hold at testload.10.3.3 Total number of hits above the low-amplitude thresh-old during loading.10.3.4 Indicate most active sensor location.11. Evaluation11.1 Evaluation based on emissions during load hold isparticularly
