Abstract
Three-dimensional (3-D)finite element simulation models are conducted to simulate the in-serviceinspection of the axial stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in ferromagneticpipeline using remote field eddy current (RFEC) probes. In this paper, atypical remote field eddy current probe which is internal to and coaxial withthe pipe is firstly introduced. Then a 3-D finite element simulation model isestablished in ANSYS to analyze the detection of RFEC technology. Finally theRFEC signals are observed when changing the geometric parameters, and thedefinite influences of crack size on the amplitude and phase lag of REFCsignals are evaluated. The results of the investigations are beneficial to thedetection and sizing of SCC in pipelines
