Experimental characterization of cracks using nortek 500 eddy current flow detectors

Nortek 500 portable eddy current flaw detectors is used to inspect and to characterize defects in Inconel 600 and copper with random physical properties. A program based on LabVIEW software is developed in order to realize the online inspection of device and to monitor the output signal. Simulation works were performed, using stochastic finite element method. The master parameters are calculated and discussed.
