摘要
This paper presents a full 3D study of a shielded ECT sensor. The spatial resolution and effective sensing field are obtained by means of Finite Element Method based simulations and are the compared to a conventional sensor's characteristics. An effective improvement was found in the sensitivity in the pipe cross-section, resulting in enhanced quality of the reconstructed image. The sensing field along the axis of the sensor also presents better behaviour for a shielded sensor.
