Evaluation of Shot Peened SS 347 Tubes Through a Magnetostrictive Sensing (MsS) Device
摘要
Impact of shot peening on SS347 tube has been investigated using MagStrics, a magnetostrictive sensing (MsS) device comprising of rapidly quenched ribbon as sensor element. Two tubes of SS347 have been considered in pre- and post-shot peened state. Annealed ribbon as sensor element showed enhanced MsS signal. Using the annealed ribbon as sensor element, the MsS signal amplitude in shot peened tube was found to be distinctly different from un-peened sample. This was associated to magnetic phase evolutions in the pipe internal surface due to shot peening. Such phenomena have been endorsed through SEM–EDX compositional analysis and correlated through simulations using COMSOL Multiphysics.
