APPLICATION OF A 3‐D EDDY CURRENT CODE (TRIFOU) TO NON‐DESTRUCTIVE TESTING

Abstract

A 3‐D eddy current code, TRIFOU, has been used to simulate eddy currents flowing around cracks in very thick conductors, which is a fully 3‐D situation. The measurement set and the probe have also been simulated so that we can compare numerical and experimental output signals. Storage and CPU‐time requirements are detailed and the expectations of such a program in non‐destructive testing are discussed.
