LESSON I
INTRODUCTION
Task 1. Read the text and explain the underlined words. Then
translate them.
Non-destructive Testing is one part of the function of Quality Control
and is complementary to other long established methods.
By definition, non-destructive testing is the testing of materials, for
surface or internal flaws or metallurgical condition, without interfering in
any way with the integrity of the material or its suitability for service.
The technique can be applied on a sampling basis for individual investigation or may be used for 100% checking of material in a production
quality control system.
Whilst being a high technology concept, evolution of the equipment
has made it robust enough for application in any industrial environment
at any stage of manufacture from steel making to site inspection of com-
ponents already in service.
A certain degree of skill is required to apply the techniques properly
in order to obtain the maximum amount of information concerning the
product, with consequent feedback to the production facility.
Non-destructive Testing is not just a method for rejecting substandard
material; it is also an assurance that the supposedly good is good. The
technique uses a variety of principles; there is no single method around
which a black box may be built to satisfy all requirements in all circumstances.
What follows is a brief description of the methods most commonly
used in industry, together with details of typical applications, functions
and advantages. The methods covered are:
• Radiography
• Magnetic Particle Crack Detection
• Dye Penetrant Testing
• Ultrasonic Flaw Detection
• Eddy Current and Electro-magnetic Testing
However, these are by no means the total of the principles available to
the NDT Engineer. Electrical potential drop, sonics, infrared, acoustic
emission and spectrography, to name but a few, have been used to provide
4

information that the above techniques have been unable to yield, and de-
reject, detection, emission, eddy, ultrasonic, radiography, investigation, va-

LESSON II
INTRODUCTION TO RADIOGRAPHY X AND GAMMA
Task 1. Read the text and explain the underlined words. Then
translate them.
This technique is suitable for the detection of internal defects in ferrous and nonferrous metals and other materials.
X-rays, generated electrically, and gamma rays emitted from radioactive isotopes, are penetrating radiation which is differentially absorbed by
the material through which it passes; the greater the thickness, the greater
the absorption. Furthermore, the denser the material the greater the absorption.
8

X and gamma rays also have the property, like light, of partially converting silver halide crystals in a photographic film to metallic silver, in
proportion to the intensity of the radiation reaching the film, and therefore
forming a latent image. This can be developed and fixed in a similar way
to normal photographic film (the technology applied before the advent of
digital photography).
Material with internal voids is tested by placing the subject between
the source of radiation and the film. The voids show as darkened areas,
where more radiation has reached the film, on a clear background. The
principles are the same for both X and gamma radiography.
In X-radiography the penetrating power is determined by the voltage
applied to the X-Ray tube in steel approximately 1000 volts per inch
(inch = 2.54 cm) thickness is necessary. In gamma radiography the isotope governs the penetrating power and is unalterable in each isotope.
Thus, Iridium-192 is used for 1/2" to 1" steel and Caesium-134 is used
for 3/4" to 21/2" steel.
In X-radiography, the amperage of the cathode in the tube governs the
intensity, and therefore the exposure time. Exposure time is usually expressed in terms of milliampere minutes. With gamma rays the intensity
of the radiation is set at the time of supply of the isotope. The intensity of
radiation from isotopes is measured in Becquerel’s and reduces over a
period of time. The time taken to decay to half the amount of nuclei is the
half-life and is characteristic of each isotope. For example, the half-life
of Iridium-192 is 74 days, and Caesium-134 is 2.1 years. The exposure
factor is a product of the number of curies and time, usually expressed in
curie hours. The time of exposure must be increased as the isotope decays
when the exposure period becomes uneconomical the isotope must be
renewed.
As the isotope is continuously emitting radiation it must be housed in
a container of depleted uranium or similar dense shielding material, whilst
not exposed to protect the environment and personnel.
To produce an X or gamma radiograph, the film package (comprising
film and intensifying screens the latter being required to reduce the exposure time enclosed in a light tight cassette) is placed close to the surface of the subject.
The source of radiation is positioned on the other side of the subject
some distance away, so that the radiation passes through the subject and
9

on to the film. After the exposure period the film is removed, processed,
1) penetrating
a) factor
2) photographic
b) areas
dried, and then viewed by transmitted light on a special viewer (negatoscope).
Various radiographic and photographic accessories are necessary, including such items as radiation monitors, film markers, image quality indicators, darkroom equipment, etc. Where the last is concerned there are
many degrees of sophistication, including fully automatic processing
units. These accessories are the same for both X and gamma radiography
systems.
Also required are such consumable items as radiographic film and processing chemicals.
Task 2. Answer the following comprehension questions:
1) What is radiography applied for?
2) In what way does the degree of absorption of X- and gamma rays
depend on the material through which it passes?
3) What properties do X- and gamma rays possess?
4) How is the penetrating power determined in X-radiography?
5) How is the intensity, and therefore the exposure time governed
and measured in X-radiography?
6) What is the exposure factor and how is it usually expressed?
7) What requirements should be met to protect the environment and
personnel from the radiation emitted by the isotope?
8) What conditions should be set out to produce an X- or gamma
radiograph?
9) Enumerate the items needed for making a radiograph.
Task 3. Make a 5-point plan covering all the bullet points of
the text.
Task 4. Summarize the text in 200 words using the plan in the
exercise above.
Task 5. Ask 10 key questions to the text.

words and make up 12 example sentences using them:
