Abstract:

This paper describes a high frequency ultrasonic testing of Cr-Mo steel samples heat-treated at high temperature. Reflected echoes were analyzed both in the time and frequency domains. Ultrasonic characteristics such as attenuation coefficient, velocity and frequency of samples being tested were obtained. Relationships between these parameters and the average grain diameter of samples were also obtained. These results are useful in early assessment of material thermal fatigue development based on ultrasonic pulseecho techniques.

Key words: attenuation coefficient, frequency, grain diameter
