The present inventors have studied the method of measuring the crystal grain size of an object to be measured in a non-destructive state using ultrasonic waves in order to solve such a conventional problem. When the sound wave propagates through the object to be measured, it is scattered and reflected at the crystal grain boundary of the object to be measured, and the frequency of the backscattered noise that returns from the middle is analyzed to determine the relationship between the frequency and the intensity of the backscattered noise. The frequency distribution area obtained by integrating the scattering noise intensity with respect to the frequency is small when the crystal grain size is relatively small as shown in FIG. 6, while the crystal grain size is small as shown in FIG. Is relatively large, and it has been found that there is a proportional relationship between the frequency distribution area and the crystal grain size as shown by the straight line A in FIG.
