  • A flexible eddy current array sensor with double-side reinforcement is proposed for hole edge crack monitoring. First, with COMSOL finite element method, a finite element model of the sensor and the test piece was established, through which the effects of lift-off, permeability of the gasket and crack growth on the output signals of the sensor were analyzed. Then, sensors with and without reinforcement were prepared and the extrusion experiment and on-line fatigue crack monitoring experiment were carried out, followed by error analysis based on the difference between the experimental results and the simulation results. The results showed that with the increase of lift-off and permeability of the gasket, the output inductive voltage of the sensor increased gradually, while the sensitivity of the crack detection sensor decreased with the mounting lift-off. The sensor with reinforcement can work when the tightening torque was 63 N·m, while the sensor without reinforcement completely failed when the tightening torque was 50 N·m. The online crack monitoring experiments also verified that the sensor with reinforcement has quantitative crack monitoring ability, and the crack monitoring accuracy is consistent with the distance between the excitation coils, which is up to 1 mm. The difference between the experimental results and the simulation results was mainly introduced by the lift-off.
