Fig. 5 is the explanation to the another embodiment of defect detection on ultrasonic basis of the present invention.When all influence factors such as: because the shape of acoustic beam and length and the influence that scattering causes to crystal of measured object material character are constant on sound footpath, the receiving efficiency of transducer is identical.In Fig. 5, ultrasonic transducer A, B place the both sides of measured object or steel pipe 1 defective 2 respectively, and the ultrasonic beam that makes transducer A send is crossed defective 2 directive transducer B with transmission.Another ultrasonic transducer C is configured to make it receive the position of the reflection supersonic wave of defective 2.Defective 2 is transducer A half to the sound path length of transducer B to the distance of transducer C.Sound footpath central point between transducer A, B is D.Transmission ultrasonic beam direction from transducer A to transducer B is shown in arrow RB, from transducer A through defective 2 to the reflectance ultrasound wave beam direction of transducer C shown in arrow RC, witness marker RB, RC, be used to represent the acoustic pressure of the ultrasonic energy of propagating in the direction hereinafter.
Therefore, the effect of transducer B, the C in Fig. 5 is a size of measuring transmission and reflection supersonic wave.That is to say, the ultrasound wave that transducer A sends respectively steel pipe selected axially on and transmission and reflecting acoustic pressure RB, RC on the perimeter surface of whole garden.Measurement and Data Processing are as follows:

Fig. 6 illustrates the setting of ultrasonic transducer in another embodiment.Different steel pipe 1a, the 1b of two sections material characters, be soldered to together, the attenuation coefficient that weld seam 3 has a defective 2, two sections steel pipe 1a, 1b is μ 1, μ 2, except that attenuation coefficient, other influence factors constant all on the measured piece.Acoustic pressure, transducer emission efficiency and the receiving efficiency of transducer emission are all near identical.Two transmitting transducer A 1, A 2With two receiving transducer B 1, B 2Dispose in pairs with respect to the tested district that contains defectiveness.Receiving transducer B 1Receive transmitting transducer A 1Ultrasound wave R emission, that reflected by defective 2 1, also receive transmitting transducer A 2The ultrasonic beam R of defective 2 is crossed in the transmission of emission 4Receiving transducer B 2Receive transmitting transducer A 2Ultrasonic beam R emission, that reflected by defective 2 2, also accept A 1Emission, transmission crosses the ultrasonic beam R of defective 2 3, witness marker R 1, R 2, R 3, R 4Also be used for representing the acoustic pressure of received ultrasonic beam and reflection wave.
The reception acoustic pressure is as follows:

=only relevant constant with defect shape
Because this evaluation of estimate does not rely on the variation of weld seam two layers of material character, so it is to determining whether that having defective is effectively, has so just improved the result's who judges reliability.
The transducer that moves around steel pipe is one after the other measured data, survey data and mutual relationship is as follows:
Fig. 7 shows the reflection supersonic wave echo data of surveying according to the transducer of Fig. 5 setting and the curve of making.Transverse axis is represented the angle of circumference around steel pipe among the figure, and the longitudinal axis is a reflecting acoustic pressure intensity.Fig. 8 shows the curve that the hyperacoustic data of transmission surveyed according to the transducer of Fig. 5 setting are made, and among the figure, transverse axis is represented the angle of circumference around steel pipe.The longitudinal axis is the transmission sound pressure.It is the artificial defect of 1/2 thickness of pipe that this test steel pipe has a degree of depth, has indicated the position of defective in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 with arrow.Owing to the material character of pipe and defect condition have been simplified, so the waveform among Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 has clearly illustrated defective in many reflection waves and transmitted wave acoustic pressure.Yet,, on figure, differentiate still suitable difficulty of defective to actual steel pipe with the centrifugal casting manufactured.
Fig. 9 illustrates the result of the evaluation of estimate RC/RB that calculates by method of the present invention.The longitudinal axis is the amount of representing with relative unit, and it is not subjected to the influence of pipe material character.
If adopt ultrasonic transducer shown in Figure 6 to arrange, calculate evaluation of estimate R with detection data 1* R 2/ R 3* R 4, can obtain arriving the same result of Fig. 9 with Fig. 7.
Transmission and reflection supersonic wave are subjected to the influence of the local scattered noise of crystal boundary generation, and these noises are at random, change with the sound footpath is different.Because any defective and crackle all have certain space thickness, so, all center on tested steel pipe from the ultrasound wave of defect reflection and transmission and launch certain angle and propagate.After considering the ultrasonic energy intensity difference that local scattered noise intensity and defective cause, should with on the steel pipe circumference and the data that obtain on the axis be averaged and obtain secondary data.In secondary data, it is quite level and smooth that local scattered noise becomes.Then, secondary data is obtained evaluation of estimate by the inventive method processing.The method is surveyed crack defect higher reliability, as shown in figure 10.It is earlier right to handle at first also that raw data obtains evaluation of estimate, the computing that again evaluation of estimate is averaged replaces, and raw data is averaged and the computing of these mean values of aftertreatment.
Figure 11 shows the circuit block diagram of reflectoscope of the present invention.
Shown in Figure 11, channel to channel adapter 10 connects four ultrasonic transducer A, B, C, D, and transducer can send the ultrasound wave of frequency range from 0.1MHz-10MHz to measured object (as steel pipe), also can receive the reflection and the transmission ultrasound wave of steel pipe.And this ultrasound wave is converted to electric signal.Channel to channel adapter 10 selected transducers are ultrasonic transmitter, and another is a receiver.Channel to channel adapter sequentially selects different emitter/receivers right, and they are connected with supersonic wave test instrument 11.Tester can enable to launch ultrasonic beam to the selected instantaneous high pressure that provides of ultrasonic transmitter, also can receive the electric signal that comes from selected receiver.The electric signal that comes out from ultrasonic tesint instrument 11 is sent into gain circuit for rectifying 13 through wave filter 12 filtering.The signal that is remedied to specified level is sent into high-speed AD converter (A/D) 14 again, and electric signal is changed into digital signal.The digital signal of coming out from high-speed AD converter A/D14 is stored in the register 15.The signal of storage is read out after interface 16 is sent into computing machine 17.Computing machine 17 can comprise one 16 CPU, and it can be processed into evaluation of estimate to the data that ultrasonic transducer A, B, C, D record one by one by the present invention's method noted earlier.
