| Describe Eddy Current NDT: |
AC current builds up a magnetic field. A good part (baseline reference) and test part (differences) are needed for comparison. Test looks at Eddy current changes from good part to defective part. |

| Describe Through-transmission NDT: |
A pulse is sent through the test part to a receiver on other side of part. Defects block pulse and reduces amount of energy transmitted. Training required. |

 |
| When a part is held on end for magnetic particle inspection what direction are the lines of flux and what type of crack is best detected? |
Head shot - flux lines are Radial and an axial crack is easiest to detect. Think, Head, parallel lines of flux, perpendicular crack detection. |

| When a coil is place around a part for magnetic particle inspection what direction are the lines of flux and what type of crack is best detected? |
Coil shot - flux lines are axial and a radial crack is easiest to detect. Think, Coil, straight lines of flux, perpendicular crack detection. |
