Development and Performance Comparison of a 64-Channel Annular Array Probe Excited Simultaneously by Shorted Symmetrically Positioned Elements

Ultrasonic testing technology is used to inspect pipe welds in nuclear and thermal power plants. This paper proposes a new method to measure weld defects in thick-walled pipes of about 100 mm using ultrasonic phased array technology. The effectiveness of annular arrays is confirmed by numerical simu...
