| Abstract | |||||
| The adherence of sodium on the external surface of steam generator tubes of Fast Breeder Reactors adds an additional level of complexity in the in-service inspection of SGs using eddy current testing. The paper focusses on research and development of novel multi-frequency algorithms, based on eddy current signals, special developed and tuned to enhance the signal from defects located on external tube surface and to suppress electromagnetic noise from the conductive sodium and tube support plates. The application of the multi-frequency algorithm is investigated using both three-dimensional finite element simulations and experimental measurements from SG tubes soaked and then drained of sodium, in a sodium tank mock-up. | |||||
