Abstract

The method described has been used in preservice inspection to measure the location and depth of defects detected in the austenitic cladding of a PWR reactor pressure vessel and good results have been obtained. The accuracy of this method has been verified by subsequent grinding and liquid penetrant testing of defect areas. A comparison between measured location and depth values and the values found in the subsequent opening of defects will be presented.
