Abstract
An analytical model was developed to determine the length of a surface-breaking defect along the direction of the applied field when using the magnetic flux leakage (MFL) non-destructive technique. The theoretical model fits the experimental MFL results from simulated defects. The extreme positions of the normal magnetic leakage field component were subsequently used for a quantitative evaluation of the defect length. Permeability variations were neglected by employing a flux density close to sample saturation. Four different defect geometries were experimentally investigated and the validity of the analytical model was verified. Good agreement between theoretical and experimental results suggests that this method can be used as an inverse MFL data interpretation technique.
