A review is presented of methods and means of ultrasonic inspection of austenitic weld joints. The basic structural factors influencing the propagation of ultrasonic vibrations in austenitic weld joints are considered. The influence of the ultrasonic inspection parameters on the ratio of the useful signal to the average level of structural interferences is shown. Acoustic models of austenitic weld joints are presented. The basic methods of increasing the interference resistance and apparatus for inspection of acoustic weld joints are described.
