NDT Midterm Study Guide & Non-Destructive Testing Revision Notes
Engine rotating parts require what level of penetrant sensitivity: - ANS ✔✔Level 4
When fluorescent penetrant inspection is performed, the penetrant is formulated to glow
brightly and give off light at a wavelength that: - ANS ✔✔The eye is most sensitive to under dim
lighting conditions while using an ultra violet light source.
What does In Accordance With or I.A.W. mean? - ANS ✔✔Both B and C
References the manual type your procedure came from, i.e. "NDT manual"
References the chapter/section of the procedure you used
Fluorescent penetrant application should be monitored to ensure complete coverage of the
area of interest using what: - ANS ✔✔Integrity checked black light
If the surface of the part has been machined, surface blasted, filed or sanded : - ANS ✔✔The
part may also require etching.
What are the major requirements needed to become qualified in any NDT method? - ANS
✔✔On the Job Training and Classroom Instruction.
Which level of penetrant is the most sensitive? - ANS ✔✔Level 4
The advantage that liquid penetrant testing has over an unaided visual inspection is that: - ANS
✔✔It makes defects easier to see for the inspector
, Which penetrant classification is further divided into sensitivity levels? - ANS ✔✔Type I
What is the most important & basic form of Non-Destructive Inspection/Examination? - ANS
✔✔Visual Inspection
Penetrants are designed to: - ANS ✔✔Remain fluid so it can be drawn back to the surface of the
part
Which of the following identifies the qualification levels of Non Destructive Testing: - ANS
✔✔Level 1 Limited, Level 1, Level 2 & Level 3
The skills and qualifications associated with NDT/NDE are only applicable to the aviation
industry. - ANS ✔✔False
Which level of qualification requires more hours of classroom instruction and on the job
training? - ANS ✔✔Level III
When performing liquid penetrant inspection, the part under inspection should be: - ANS
✔✔All of the above.
Dry.
Clean and smooth to the touch.
Free of water, oil, grease and other contaminants.
You are qualified in every NDT discipline. You are a Level 2 in Ultrasound and Eddy Current. You
have over 1000 hours of FPI experience and are Level 1 in the discipline of Magnetic Particle.
Today you are assigned an ultrasound flaw detection inspection on a Trent 800 fan blade root.
