Answer:Densitometers or step-wedge comparison films.

 

69. What is radiography?

Answer: A radiograph is a shadow picture produced by the passage of X-rays or gamma – rays through an object onto a film. When the rays pass through the object, part of the radiation penetrates the material and part is absorbed. The amount of radiation absorbed and the amount that penetrates are a function of the thickness of the material. Where a void or discontinuity exists, there is essentially less material to absorb the radiation. Therefore, more radiation will pass through this section and a dark spot corresponding to the projected position of the void will appear on the film.

a. A 2000 kV tube?

Answer: 1.8 – 4.0 ( for any X-ray source )

Answer: 2.0 – 4.0 ( for any gamma source)

b. 1.8
c. 2.0
d. 1.3
e. None of the above
Answer: e. The correct answer is –15% from the transmitted density through the body of the penetrameter

72. Under ASME Code Section V, what upper and lower density limits are acceptable for viewing if the density through the body of the penetrameter is 2.7?
Assume single film viewing.

Answer:
-15% = 2.295
+30% = 3.510

73. What is the minimum number of IQI required for the following:

A. A complete girth seam containing 30 radiographs shot with a single exposure?

Answer: Requires at least 3 IQIs spaced 1200 apart.

B. Twelve radiographs on a longitudinal seam shot from the outside with a single exposure?

Answer:Requiresat least 12 IQI, one on each film.

c. 2.0
d. 1.3

75. A weld with a nominal thickness of 1.5 inch is to be radiographed using a film side penetrameter. The penetrameter designation
should be: (Note: This is an open book question)

a. 25 Answer
b. 30
c. 35
d. Both a and b are acceptable?

76. A) What are hole – type penetrameters and what are they used for?

Answer:An IQI is a small strip of material, fabricated of radiographically similar material to the object being inspected, and having a thickness of approximately 2% of the object being radiographed. The IQI has three holes in it. The sizes of these holes are 1T, 2T and 4T where “T” is the thickness of the IQI. The 2T is designated as the essential hole, i.e., the hole whose image must appear on the radiograph. IQI thickness and essential hole size requirements are listed in tables in Section V of the ASME Code. The IQI is identified with a number made of lead that is attached to the IQI. This number indicates the thickness of the IQI in thousandths of an inch. An IQI is used for evaluating radiographic technique in that it serves as an image quality indicator, proper technique should display the IQI image and the specified hole.

B) What are wire penetrameters and what are they used for?

Answer: Wire type IQI use thin wires to ascertain sensitivity instead of holes. The ability to see the wire required by the Code indicates a quality radiograph.

77. In radiographing a butt welded joint of 1” thickness, on what side of the weld is the penetrameter normally placed?

Answer: The IQI should be placed the source side of the material being radiographed. However, where inaccessibility prevents this, the IQI may be placed on the film side of the material being radiographed provided a lead letter “F” at least as high as the identification number is placed adjacent to the IQI.

78. What type of flaws may be detected by:

1. Liquid Penetrant testing?

Answer:Surface discontinuities

2. Magnetic Particle testing?

Answer:Surface and slight sub-surface discontinuitie

3. Radiographic examination?

Answer:Surface and sub-surface discontinuities

4. Ultrasonic examination?

Answer: Surface and sub-surface discontinuities

79. What is a densitometer used to determine?

Answer: A densitometer ( or step wedge comparison film ) shall be used for judging film density requirements. Film density is a measure of overall darkening of the radiograph, which is directly related to the sensitivity, definition, and overall quality of the technique.

80. Name two radiation sources permitted for radiographic examination in ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

Answer:The two common radiographic sources in industrial use today are X-ray machines and artificially produced radioactive isotopes of certain metallic elements.

81. When reviewing a radiograph, a dark image of the letter B can be seen on the film. Does this indicate an unacceptable radiograph?

Answer:No.

82. Describe how liquid penetrant examination should be performed in order to detect discontinuities that are open to the surface, per Article 6 of ASME Code section V.

 

Answer: The part is first thoroughly cleaned of oil, dirt, etc, and then a liquid penetrant is applied to the surface to be examined and allowed to enter the discontinuities. All excess penetrant is then removed, the part is dried, and a developer is applied. The developer functions both as a blotter to absorb penetrant that has been trapped in discontinuities and as a contrasting background to enhance the visibility of penetrant indications. The dyes in penetrants are either color contrast (visible under white light) or fluorescent (visible under ultraviolet light)

83. A) If IQIs are not placed on the source side, what rules apply?

Answer: The penetrameter should be placed on the source side of the material being radiographed. However, where inaccessibility prevents this, the penetrameter may be placed on the film side of the material being radiographed provided a lead letter “F” at least as high as the identification number is placed adjacent to the penetrameter.

B) For materials being radiographed other than welds, where are the IQIs placed?

Answer:For material other than weld a source side penetrameter shall be placed in the area of interest.

84. If the density through the IQI is 2.50, what would the maximum allowable density and minimum allowable density be through the weld represented by this un-shimmed IQI?

Answer:
Minus 15% to plus 30% allowed
2.5 + 30% = 2.5 + 0.75 = 3.25
2.5 – 15% = 2.5 – 0.4 = 2.125

85. On a set of cassettes containing film for a seam just radiographed you notice the lead location markers (i.e. 1-2, 2-3 etc.) are taped to the cassettes. Would these radiographs be acceptable?

Answer:No. Location makers that are to appear on the radiographic film should be placed on the part being examined and not on the cassettes.
