Ultrasonic inspection of spent nuclear fuel casks

Abstract

The paper describes the main aspects of ultrasonic non-destructive inspection of casks with spent fuel. Digital Focus Array technique is proposed for acoustic imaging of spent nuclear fuel casks' closure weld. Scientific and engineering basics and imaging algorithms of this technique are discussed. Advantages of Digital Focus Array technique in comparison with common techniques of acoustic images processing are revealed.
