CHOOSING OF OPERATING FREQUENCY OF EDDY CURRENT THICKNESS METER WITH SUPERIMPOSED TRANSDUCER
Abstract
It is shown that when using eddy current thickness meter with superimposed transducer the maximal thickness of the conductive sheets or conductive surface layers of a two-layer wares, which may be controlled with selected frequency of excitation current of the transducer, can be estimated based on the magnitude of the penetration depth of a plane electromagnetic wave in the half-space, the specific electrical conductivity and the relative magnetic permeability of which is equal to the values of these parameters in a controlled surface layer or sheet of two-layer ware.
