Abstract
To prevent injury from metal degradation of structural metallic material such as stainless steel, we have previously proposed fatigue evaluation methods such as the remnant magnetization method and the inductance method. These fatigue evaluation methods showed a positive correlation between the magnetic sensor output signal and the amount of the plane-bending fatigue damage in stainless steel. In this study, a stacked-coil type magnetic sensor was used to evaluate the accuracy of the plane-bending fatigue damage of austenite stainless steel such as SUS304 (ANSI304). The principle of the stacked-coil type magnetic sensor is based on an eddy-current test method. This magnetic sensor was composed of a pick-up coil, an excitation coil, and a Mn-Zn ferrite core. The pick-up coil was composed of two bobbin type coils that were connected differentially. Moreover, the amplitude and the phase angle of the output voltage of the pick-up coil were used to evaluate the amount of the plane-bending fatigue damage of SUS304. Results demonstrated a close correlation between the amplitude and the phase angle of the stacked-coil type magnetic sensor output voltage and the plane-bending fatigue damage of SUS304.
