Zusammenfassung:An ultrasonic matrix phased array inspection system can include a plurality of curved matrix phased array probes 310 surrounding a test chamber 320 through which a longitudinal test object passes. Fluid injectors 380 can provide a rotating fluid jacket around the longitudinal test object to ultrasonically couple the plurality of curved matrix phased array probes to the longitudinal test object. The plurality of curved matrix phased array probes 310 can remain in a fixed position during inspection and can inspect the longitudinal test object by transmitting ultrasonic sound waves at various angles to identify flaws of any orientation.
