Structural Integrity Assessment during Hydrotesting of Storage Tanks and Exchange Tower Units of a Heavy Water Plant using Acoustic Emission Technique

摘要：

Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring during hydrotesting of storage tanks and exchange tower units of a heavy water plant was carried out. AE signals were recorded during pressurizing, pressure hold and repressurizing cycles. AE events were observed only during pressurization. Absence of AE during the pressure hold and repressurizing cycles confirmed the absence of any growing defects in the vessels, thus ensuring their healthiness for continued operation.
