Abstract
In eddy current non-destructive testing, numerical models have been used for a long time to optimize the method. Those models solve Maxwell’s equations and compute the coil impedance. Many 2-D programs have been realized:
-
for axisymmetrical geometries, with axisymmetrical or very small flaws, to model tube sheets of a steam generator or wires [1,2].
-
for an E-shape sensor which generates a one dimensional field to scan a plane surface [3].
