摘要

The evaluation of creep damages of Cr-Mo-V steel used in the gas turbine of power plant has been carried out using the line-focus-beam (LFB) acoustic microscopy. The velocity of leaky surface acoustic wave (LSAW) propagated near the specimen surface was used for the quantitative evaluations, which was measured by LFB acoustic microscopy using the v(z) curve analysis method. It has been shown that with the increase of creep damage fraction of metal material the LSAW velocity decreases obviously, which suggests the possibility of nondestructive and quantitative evaluations of creep damages in metal materials by acoustic microscopy.
