Q. During ultrasonic testing by the immersion method, it is frequently necessary to angulate the search unit when a discontinuity is located at an angle in order to: (Solved)
1. Avoid a large number of back reflections that could interfere with a normal test pattern
2. Obtain a maximum response if the discontinuity is not originally oriented perpendicular to the ultrasonic beam
3. Obtain a discontinuity indication of the same height as the indication from the flat bottomed hole in a reference block
4. Obtain the maximum number of entry surface reflections
- b. Obtain a maximum response if the discontinuity is not originally oriented perpendicular to the ultrasonic beam
