Abstract

Results of three-dimensional finite-element analysis investigations of remote field eddy current (RFEC) signal responses from internal and external stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in steel pipes are presented. The fine shallow SCC cracks were simulated by double axial slits located on the near- and farside pipe surfaces under simulated RFEC excitation. Although it is normally a characteristic of RFEC testing that responses to interior or exterior defects are approximately equal, there is a considerable difference between the farside and nearside responses from very fine defects such as SCC cracks.
