| Abstract: | The X-ray computed CT scanner, capable of producing sharp tomograms, was expected to become a practical and revolutional means in nondestructive inspection in the industrial field.In Japan, the development of the Linac X-ray CT scanner is under way for the inspection of SCC in welds of a nuclear power plant. For development of the Linac-CT, the preliminary experiments for the inspection of SCC artificial defects were performed using a 420 kVp industrial X-ray CT scanner (TOSCANER 4200) which had been developed by Toshiba Corporation. This paper includes the background of this program and the summary of preliminary experiments for X-ray CT. |
