(1) Check preheat and interpass temperatures
(2) Check conformance Specification (WPS) to Welding Procedure
(3) Examine weld root pass
(4)Examine weld layers
This alsoprovides a check to determineif adequate cleaning is being accomplished between passes. This may help toalleviate the occurrenceof slag inclusions in the final weld.
(5) Examine second side prior to welding Any of these factors, if ignored, could result in discontinuities that could cause serious quality degradation.
Critical joint root conditions may exist on the second side of a double-welded joint. This area should be examined after removal of slag and other irregularities. This is to assure that all discontinuities have been removed and that the contour of the excavation provides access for subsequent welding.

Porosity is a cavity-type discontinuity formed by gas entrapment حبس گاز during solidification انجمادسازی or in a thermal-spray deposit. The discontinuity formedis generally spherical and may be elongated. A common cause of porosity is contamination during welding.
piping porosity which is a form of porosity having a length greater than its width that lies approximately perpendicular to the weld face. Piping porosity may also be referred to as wormhole porosity.
Aligned Porosity
The pores may be spherical or elongated. Aligned porosity is sometimes referred to as linear porosity.
Undercut is generally associated with either improper welding techniques or excessive welding currents, or both.
Incomplete fusion the result of improper welding techniques, improper preparation of the base metal, or improper joint design
Incomplete joint penetration may result from insufficient welding heat, improper joint design (e.g., thickness the welding arc cannot penetrate),or improper lateral control of the welding arc
Underfill is a conditionin which the weld face or root surface of a groove weld extends below the adjacent surfaceof the base metal. It results from the failure of the welder to completely fill the weld joint.
Overlap is the protrusion of unfused weld metal beyond the weld toe or weld root. Overlap is a surface discontinuity that forms a mechanical notch and is nearly always considered rejectable. Two common causes of overlap may be insufficient travel speed and improper preparation of the base metal
Seams and laps are base metal discontinuities that may be found in rolled , drawn , and forged products. They differ from laminations in that they appear on the surface of the worked product . While seams and laps are surface discontinuities, they may only be detected after fabrication operations suchas bending, rolling, or sand blasting. Welding over seams and laps can cause cracking, porosity, or both
Crack
Cold cracks develop after solidification iscomplete. In carbon and low-alloy steels, cold cracks can occur in either the weld metal, heat-affected zone , or base metal , and are usually the result of dissolved hydrogen. The cracks can form hours or even days after the weldis completed. Cold cracks propagate both between grains and through grain.
Root cracks are longitudinal cracks at the weld root or in the root surface. They may be hot or cold cracks.
Excessive Reinforcement. In groove welds, weld reinforcement isweld metal in excess of the quantity required to fill a joint.Weld reinforcement can be located at either the weld face or weld root surface, and is called face reinforcement and root reinforcement, respectively

در شرایطی که اقتصاد کشور با چالشهای متعدد دستوپنجه نرم میکند، دو مسئلهی مهم "عدم کفایت دستمزدها" و "کمبود نیروی کار" ( نظرخودم : اشتباه بزرگ در اخراج افاغنه ) بهطور فزایندهای در حال گسترش است. این وضعیت نهتنها معیشت خانوارها را تحت تأثیر قرار داده، بلکه در بخشهای مختلف تولید و خدمات نیز بحران ایجاد کرده است.
آمارهای میدانی به راحتی نشان می دهد که بسیاری از کارگران و کارمندان بر این باورند که دستمزدهای فعلی توان تأمین هزینههای زندگی را ندارد ( نظر خودم : پس علت تولد نوزادهای جدید در این تورم چیست ؟ احتمالاً بخاطر دفاع از کشور در آینده ). تورم روزافزون و افزایش قیمت کالاهای اساسی باعث شده که حتی اقلام ضروری از دسترس بخش قابلتوجهی از جامعه خارج شود. کارگران می گویند با این حقوقها نمیتوان زندگی کرد. هزینه اجاره خانه، آموزش فرزندان و خوراک هر روز بیشتر میشود، اما حقوق ما ثابت مانده است.
غفاری ( تامین احتماعی ) اظهار کرد: کارگر را سخت و زیان آور اعلام کردند، هیچ کجای دنیا به اندازه کشور ما بازنشسته سخت و زیان آور ندارد، و بسیاری از افراد در سنین جوانی ۳۵، ۴۰ و ۴۵ سال بازنشسته شدند.
Liquid penetrant inspection is a nondestructive testing method used to detect surface defects in materials. In this process, a liquid penetrant is applied to the surface of the material and allowed to seep رسوخ کند into any surface defects. To ensure effective penetration, the liquid must have a low surface tension. Low surface tension allows the liquid to spread evenly over the surface and penetrate into small cracks and defects. Therefore, a low surface tension is an important requirement for the liquid used in liquid penetrant inspection.
Advantages of the Penetrant Process
The following are advantages of the liquid penetrant process:
1. very small surface discontinuities can be detected,
2. a wide variety of materials can be tested,
3. complex geometrical shapes can be inspected in a single operation,
4. various sensitivities and processing methods are available,
5. it is relatively easy to use,
6. it can be portable
7. when compared to other testing methods, it has a low cost.
If a system is too sensitive, the results may be misleading ( گمراه کننده ) and time will be wasted ( تلف شود ) in the evaluation process. If the system is not sensitive enough, rejectable defects could remain undetected.
The sensitivity of a liquid penetrant system refers to its capability to detect small defects. This means that a highly sensitive system can identify even the smallest flaws عیوب or imperfections in the material being tested. Contrast ratios and color intensity may contribute to the system's effectiveness, but the primary factor determining sensitivity is its ability to detect small defects. The frequency of black-light used is not mentioned in the question and therefore cannot be considered as a factor in determining sensitivity.
The tendency تمایل of a liquid penetrant to enter a discontinuity is primarily related to the capillary forces. where a liquid can be drawn into narrow spaces or tubes against the force of gravity. In the case of liquid penetrant testing, capillary forces allow the penetrant to flow into small cracks or defects in a material, making them visible during the inspection process.
Liquid penetrant testing is a nondestructive testing method used to detect surface discontinuities in materials. allowing it to seep into any surface cracks or defects, and then removing the excess penetrant. The penetrant is typically brightly colored to make it visible under UV light. However, liquid penetrant testing is not capable of accurately measuring the depth of a crack or discontinuity. It can only detect the presence of surface defects, making it more suitable for finding shallow surface discontinuities rather than measuring the depth of cracks.
it is important to avoid using penetrants containing sulphur and chlorine on nickel surfaces to maintain their integrity and prevent any potential harm.
A water tolerance test is used to determine how much water a postemulsifiable penetrant or a hydrophilic emulsifier can tolerate before becoming unusable. This test helps to establish the maximum amount of water that can be present in the penetrant or emulsi¦er without affecting its effectiveness. By conducting this test, one can ensure that the penetrant or emulsifier is able to withstand مقاومت a certain level of water contamination آلودگی آب and still perform its intended function عملکرد موردنظر.
Contact angle is determined by the balance between the adhesive forces between the liquid and the surface, and the cohesive forces within the liquid. A high contact angle indicates that the liquid is less likely to spread out on the surface, while a low contact angle indicates that the liquid will spread out more easily. The contact angle is important in various applications, such as determining the wettability of a surface or understanding the behavior of liquids on different materials
The ability of the penetrant to enter the discontinuity is based on surface tension; however, the speed at which it enters is determined by viscosity.
A hydrometer is used to measure the specific gravity of a liquid. It works based on the principle that the density of a liquid is directly proportional to its specific gravity. The hydrometer is a cylindrical glass tube with a weighted bulb at the bottom. When placed in a liquid, it floats and the level at which it sinks indicates the specific gravity of the liquid. Therefore, a hydrometer is the correct tool for checking specific gravity.
Immersion dwell is a technique used in non-destructive testing where the test part is immersed in a liquid medium for a prolonged period. This method is employed when there is a need for extended dwell times to ensure thorough inspection. The other options mentioned, such as shallow and wide discontinuities and large numbers of test parts, do not specifically require the use of immersion dwell.
dilation of the pupils enables the operator to see better in the darkened environment and detect any visible dye penetrant indications. Therefore, a minimum of three minutes is required to allow the operator's eyes to fully dilate and achieve maximum seeing in the darkened inspection area.
Type of Penetrant
Penetrant can be fluorescent, visible or dual mode dye that has both visible and fluorescent properties
Fluorescent penetrant contains a dye that is visible under UV-A light. To view the indications, inspection is performed in a darkened area with an ultraviolet light source
Fluorescent penetrants have the advantage of being able to detect smaller indications more easily compared to visible dye penetrants. This is because fluorescent penetrants emit a bright glow under UV light, making even small indications more visible and easier to identify during inspection.
A black light filter is not necessary to activate the fluorescent penetrant dye because the dye is activated by the UV light emitted by the black light bulb itself. It is also not necessary to provide a contrasting background on the material surface as the black light already highlights any fluorescence present on the surface. Additionally, it is not needed to protect the black light bulb from scratches and breakage as this is not its purpose.
The black-light intensity is stated as a minimum of 1000 microwatts per centimeter squared in order to ensure that the fluorescent dye reaches its peak fluorescence. When the black-light intensity is at this level, it provides the optimal conditions for the dye to emit the brightest fluorescence, making it easier for the operator to detect any defects or irregularities on the material surface. This level of intensity ensures that the dye is fully activated and visible, allowing for accurate inspection and evaluation.
Visible penetrant uses a red, orange or purple dye that is highly visible when contrasted against a white developer coating the part surface. Inspection must be performed under white light.
Type I : Advantages of Fluorescent Liquid Penetrants
fluorescent liquid penetrant testing is more sensitive to small discontinuities than visible dye.
Advantages of Visible Dye Penetrants
It does not require a darkened area or a source of electric power for illumination ( روشنایی ). For this reason, it is more often used as a portable testing tool in the shop or field
Disadvantages of penetrant Type :
-Type I , Fluorescent :
--Requires special lighting
--Requires electricity
-Type II , Visible Dye
--Less sensitive than Type I
--Does not perform well for wide, shallow discontinuities
Penetrant class is not divided into performance grades as is fluorescent liquid penetrants.The visibility of the indications with respect to the white developer background is a key factor in successfully revealing tight discontinuities.
زمان ماندگاری ماده نافذ روی قطعه مورد آزمون
Penetrant Dwell
The total time the penetrant remains on the part surface is the penetrant dwell. The time required for a penetrant to enter a discontinuity is dependent on temperature, the type of discontinuity and the possibility of contaminants entrapped within discontinuities. Large, shallow discontinuities require less dwell time than small, tight cracks. Discontinuities free from contaminants require less dwell time than discontinuities with entrapped soil because it is easier for the penetrant to enter them.
The standard minimum dwell is 5 min unless testing in service parts. If service fatigue cracks are suspected, the minimum dwell time required is often 2 h, but for stress corrosion up to 4 h may be required. When the dwell exceeds 1 h, applying fresh penetrant every hour improves the rate of penetration.
Temperature
The temperature of the penetrant materials and the part must be within an acceptable range for processing. ASTM E 1417 specifies a temperature range of 4 to 52 °C (40 to 125 °F).
The viscosity of most liquids, including penetrants, increases at low temperatures. If a part is quite cold, under 16 °C (60 °F) for example, the liquid penetrant may become chilled and thickened when applied, making the dwell time for very fine discontinuities longer than for parts at higher temperatures. If a part or liquid penetrant is too hot, the volatile components of the liquid penetrant may evaporate, changing the ability for revealing small discontinuities. Material temperatures from 10 to 52 °C (50 to 125 °F) produce optimum results with conventional liquid penetrants,
Most industry and military specifications limit acceptable water temperature to 10 to 38 °C (50 to 100 °F) at a pressure not to exceed 276 kPa (40 psi). The spray nozzle should be a minimum of 30 cm (12 in.) from the part at an angle between 45 and 70 degrees.
روش حذف ماده نافذ اضافی
Penetrant Removal Method
Excess penetrant is removed by water wash, hydrophilic emulsification, lipophilic emulsification, or solvent wipe.
The penetrant must be removed from the part surface without removing it from within a discontinuity. An optimum amount of removal must be obtained. Too little removal will cause an excessive penetrant background and indications will be indistinguishable from the part surface. If too much is removed from the discontinuity, a weak indication or no indication will be formed. The methods for removing surface penetrant and the SAE AMS 2644 designation are:
1. Method A - Water Washable
2. Method B - Lipophilic Emulsifier
3. Method C - Solvent Removable
4. Method D - Hydrophilic Emulsifier
Fluorescent penetrant should be removed in a darkened area equipped with ultraviolet lighting regardless of the removal method.
Water Washable (Method A)
Water washable penetrants contain emulsifying agents that make the oil miscible (mixable) with water. The penetrant may be removed with a manual or automatic coarse water spray, by immersion in an air agitated water wash or by manually wiping.
The rinsing operation must be monitored closely to avoid overwashing. Washing should be stopped as soon as an acceptable background level is observed.
Lipophilic Emulsifier (Method B) چربی دوست
Removal is performed by introducing an oilbased emulsifier as a separate process step. Lipophilic emulsifier diffuses in to the surface penetrant. It is usually applied by immersion; brushing or wiping may cause streaking due to uneven emulsification and are not recommended. This system offers more control and has fewer problems with over and under washing compared to the water washable method. The emulsifier dwell may be anywhere between 5 s up to 5 min.
ASTM E 1417 limits lipophilic emulsifiers to a 3 min maximum dwell time. Finding the optimum time for specific conditions is generally accomplished through experimentation. Experience under similar circumstances related to the type and size of suspected defects, surface roughness of the part, temperature of materials, water contamination levels of the penetrant and emulsifier can be used for a guideline. If the emulsification time is either too short or too long, the part must be entirely cleaned and reprocessed with an adjusted emulsifier dwell.
Following the appropriate dwell, the part should be quickly sprayed with water wash to stop the diffusion process. Once the diffusion process is halted, the emulsified penetrant is rinsed using the same methods as the water washable method.
The postemulsification test is used to detect defects or cracks in materials by applying a penetrant, emulsifying it, and then removing the excess. If the emulsifying time is too long, it can cause the penetrant to be completely removed from the cracks or defects, rendering the test ineffective as it will not be able to detect any flaws عیوب
تست را بی اثر می کند زیرا قادر به تشخیص هیچ نقصی نخواهد بود
Having an ultraviolet light installed at the wash station allows for the inspection of parts without the need for drying. This is because ultraviolet light can reveal any fluorescent dye penetrant that may be present on the parts. By using the ultraviolet light, one can determine if the wash cycle has been effective in removing any remaining dye penetrant from the parts. This helps ensure that the parts have been properly cleaned and prepared for further processes or use.
emulsifier time is extremely important and will greatly affect test results. This implies that the amount of time the emulsifier is allowed to act on the surface has a significant impact on the outcome of the test. The longer the emulsfier time, the better the results are expected to be.
Solvent Removable (Method C)
Solvent remover is usually supplied in aerosol spray cans. The solvent works by diluting the surface penetrant. The part is first wiped with clean, dry, lintfree cloths or towels. After the major portion of penetrant has been wiped from the surface, the surface should be wiped with a clean cloth, lightly sprayed with solvent, until just a trace of penetrant is observed on the cloth. Extreme caution must be used to avoid excessive removal.
Using an excessive amount of solvent when using a solvent-removable penetrant can have negative effects. It can lead to excessive removal of the penetrant from the surface, making it difficult to detect any defects. This can result in false-negative results and compromise the effectiveness of the inspection process. Therefore, it is generally accepted that using an excessive amount of solvent should be avoided as a precautionary measure.
Water-soluble and water-suspensible developers also require the correct drying of the test parts after applying the developer to prevent streaking ( رگه شدن ) and running ( جاری شدن) of the developer coating.
Note: Flowchart shows parts being dried before dry powder and nonaqueous developer, but dried after water-soluble and water suspendable developer.
Developers :
Dry developer is the most suitable developer for parts that are complex or have rough surfaces , Aqueous developer is a water-based developer that is more suitable for smooth surfaces, while non-aqueous developer is a developer that is not water-based and may not adhere as well to complex or rough surfaces.
Non-aqueous developers are typically solvent-based and have a higher sensitivity compared to dry and aqueous developers. They are able to detect smaller defects and provide higher contrast images. Dry developers are typically used for magnetic particle testing and do not provide as high sensitivity as non-aqueous developers. Aqueous developers are water-based and have lower sensitivity compared to non- aqueous developers. Therefore, the non-aqueous developer is the most sensitive option.
