3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this Document, the terms and definitions given in GB/T 12604.1, GB/T
20306, GB/T 34370.1, GB/T 34370.5 and the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1 Circumferential planar array
A plurality of wafers on the same plane are arranged circumferentially to form a single-layer
annular planar array probe.
3.2 Circumferential scan
The scanning method that the aperture center of the excitation sound beam steps around the
center of the probe; and the sound beam is dynamically focused on the sound beam of the
corresponding cylindrical busbar.
3.3 Cylindrically B-scan view
The sound field image formed on the circular section parallel to the sound beam and
perpendicular to the scanning surface of the cylindrical workpiece under test is displayed in a
color or grayscale manner to represent the amplitude of the ultrasonic signal.
3.4 Circumferential C-scan view
The sound field image formed on the cross section parallel to the bolt scanning surface is
displayed in color or grayscale to represent the amplitude of the ultrasonic signal within the
preset time window.
4 Principle of Testing
According to the set delay law, some array elements of the circumferential planar array probe
are excited. The synthetic sound beam has the functions of radial small-angle deflection,
circumferential focusing and continuous scanning of the sound beam. The ultrasonic signal
received by each array element is then processed in a circumferential scanning manner
according to the same delay law or dynamic focusing, and the discontinuous information inside
the bolt is displayed by A-scan, cylindrical B-scan or circumferential C-scan, as shown in
Figure 1.

when the wave height drops to 40% of the screen height. Move the cursor in the opposite

as a crack. If it is less than 5 mm, the defect nature is not determined; and it can also be further
