NDT ( NON DESTRUCTIVE TESTING )

NDT (NON DESTRUCTIVE  TESTING) :- 

Non Destructive Testing in great variety are in world  wide used to detect variations in structure,minute changes in surface finish, the presence of cracks or other physical discontinuities,measure  the thickness  of materials  and  coatings  and  to  determine other characteristics of industrial products.

NDT (MPI)



REASON'S FOR THE USE OF NDT:

"NDT" is used by the manufacturers for the following reasons: 
1. To ensure product reliability.
2. To make profit for the user.
a)   To ensure customer satisfaction
b)  To aid in better product reliability.
c)   To control the manufacturing processes.
d)  To lower the manufacturing costs.
e)   To maintain uniform quality level.

SOME OF THE MOST COMMON NDT METHODS ARE :
1.VISUAL  INSPECTION
2.LIQUID PENETRATION TEST
3.MAGNETIC PARTICLE TEST
4.RADIOGRAPHY  TEST
5.ULTRASONIC  TEST

BEND TESTS

BEND TESTS Object:   To determine the soundness of weld metal, heat affected zone and weld zone.These tests may also be used to give some measure of the ductility of the weld zone. It is not usual to use transverse and longitudinal bend tests for the same application. Method:   All specimens to be removed and prepared without causing significant distortion or heating. The cap and root are ground flush. The specimen is bent by the movement of a former of prescribed diameter, the relevant side of the specimen to be placed in tension. Angle of bend and diameter of former should be as specified in the appropriate standard. Reporting Results: Thickness of specimen Direction of bend (root or face) Angle of bend Diameter of former Appearance of joint after bending e.g. type and location of flaws

CHARPY V NOTCH IMPACT TEST

CHARPY V NOTCH IMPACT TEST Object : To determine the amount of energy absorbed in fracturing a standardized test piece at a specified temperature. Method : A machined, notched specimen is broken by one blow from a pendulum. Because scatter occurs in the results, at least three specimens are used to assess the joint represented. Testing is carried out at a temperature specified in the appropriate application standard. Reporting Results: Location and orientation of the notch.  Testing temperature. Energy absorbed in joules.  Description of fracture appearance. Location of any defects. The Charpy impact test, measured in joules, is an assessment of TOUGHNESS. Transition temperature (curve) in steel.

Part -5 Most commonly asked Mechanical Interview Questions

Most commonly asked Mechanical Interview Questions with answer 1. Why the Centrifugal Pump is called High Discharge pump? Ans. Centrifugal pump is a kinetic device. The centrifugal pump uses the centrifugal force to push out the fluid. So the liquid entering the pump receives kinetic energy from the rotating impeller. The centrifugal action of the impeller accelerates the liquid to a high velocity, transferring mechanical (rotational) energy to the liquid. So it discharges the liquid in high rate. It is given in the following formulae: Centrifugal force F= (M*V2)/R. Where, M-Mass V-Velocity R-Radius 2. How Cavitation can be eliminated by Pump? Ans. Cavitation means bubbles are forming in the liquid. To avoid Cavitation, we have to increase the Pump size to One or Two Inch To increase the pressure of the Suction Head  Decrease the Pump Speed. 3. Why Cavitation will occur in Centrifugal Pump and not in Displacement Pump? Ans. The form...
