Abstract

Stresses have great influences on the mechanical performance and corrosion resistance of pipelines. Magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN) as an effective non-destructive testing method for evaluating stress in ferromagnetic materials has been widely studied in recent decades. Different from traditional MBN methods based on a time-varying magnetic field, this paper proposed a novel MBN method to induce Barkhausen noise based on rotating permanent magnets, which achieves efficient stress measurement in pipelines. Under different rotating speeds, the characterization of surface tangential excitation field induced by rotating permanent magnets are analyzed by Hall measurements and extrapolation method. Experimental results validate that the proposed method has a good detectability and sensitivity of stress measurement in pipelines.
