Abstract
The results of experimental studies on defect detection, such as cracks and impact damages, in glass-reinforced plastic pump compressor pipes (PCP) and glass-reinforced plastic sucker rods (PR) using thermal nondestructive testing method involving ultrasonic and optical stimulation are presented. It is demonstrated that infrared thermographic testing is appropriate for detecting cracks, especially ‘kissing’ ones, whereas traditional thermal inspection based on optical heating is more suitable for identifying delaminations and thinning. The efficiency of the inspection depends on the size of the ultrasonic stimulation zone with sufficient power (approximately 0,8 meters in this study). During optical heating procedures, the testing productivity depends on the size of the heated area and the field of view of the thermal imager and can reach several square meters per hour
