Modelling the Influence of the Tube Support Plate on the Eddy Current Testing of the Steam Generator: Numerical Tools and Experimental Validation

Eddy current testing (ECT) of Steam Generator (SG) tubes is part of the maintenance program of Nuclear Power Plants. Tube Support Plates (TSP) are usually only considered as extraneous signals for tube inspection. However, for long-term operation of SGs, there is a safety concern related to the bui...
