Title:
ULTRASONIC INSPECTION METHOD
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012053027
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide an ultrasonic inspection method which simply and accurately measures a thickness in the case in which a crystal grain constituting a metal solidification structure such as a unidirectional solidification material cast product has statistical variation.

Two ultrasonic probes 102B1 and 102B2 for transmission and reception face to each other in a direction parallel to a crystal growth direction, and make longitudinal ultrasonic waves propagate in an oblique direction with respect to a specimen 101. This makes ultrasonic waves 104" and 104B" incident on the specimen 101 composed of a crystal structure having acoustic anisotropy to measure the thickness of the specimen based on the acoustic velocity and the propagation time of the ultrasonic waves propagating in the specimen.
