Abstract

PURPOSE:To inspect a coating state in a safe area at any time without stopping a tank by employing a method which moves an ultrasonic probe on the external surface of the tank, and analyzes an echo at each position and judges the coating state. CONSTITUTION:A diagnostic recorder 6 is set at distance from the tank 1 and a reference point is marked on the external surface of the tank side wall 4. A tank-side measuring instrument 5 is set on the tank side wall 4. A console panel 16 is operated to start the diagnostic recorder 6 and the tank-side measuring instrument 5 is scanned longitudinally (in height direction) and laterally (in circumferential direction) repeatedly to scan over the entire surface of the tank side wall 4. The result is displayed as an echo on a scope and recorded on a printer 15. When the tank side wall 4 is normal, two echoes appear on the scope and when the coating is peeled off to float, three echoes appear.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a method for inspecting the coating condition of the inner surface of a tank using ultrasonic waves.

Conventionally, the condition of the coating on the inside of a tank has been inspected by opening the tank. For example, in the case of a storage tank containing a solution containing radioactive materials in a nuclear power plant, after it has been operated for about five years without any internal inspection, an overhaul inspection is performed and the interior surface coating is partially repaired depending on the condition of the coating. In addition, if necessary, we conduct an open inspection again during regular plant inspections and repaint the entire surface.

In addition, if the contents are harmful to the human body such as poisonous substances or radioactive substances, open inspection work is difficult, and in the case of storage tanks for radioactive substances, it is necessary to temporarily set up a temporary controlled area for open inspection. Liquid transfer, internal decontamination, etc. were required, and the work was performed within a contamination control area, resulting in an extremely low work efficiency, and it was difficult to reduce the radiation exposure of workers.
