The article presents a method of optimizing the eddy current transducer. The transducer is made of three toroidal air cored coils: one excitation coil and two receiver coils. The transducer is used for eddy current nondestructive testing (NDT).

Prosthetic heart valves of the Bjork-Shiley Convexo-Concave (BSCC) type have long been used extensively in implants; however, there have been reports of cases where one component of the valves failed, leading to the demise of the patient. This paper presents a new method for noninvasive electromagnetic evaluation for this type of valve, using an eddy current transducer with orthogonal coils. In vitro experiments have shown that discontinuities of outlet strut with depths equal or larger than 0.4mm can be detected with a probability of detection (POD) of 86.4%, and in the case of discontinuities with depth equal or larger than 0.6mm with POD of 97%.

The purpose of this study is to perform a comparative analysis of the experimentally obtained and calculated values of the measuring windings total EMF amplitudes of the eddy current transducer with spatially periodic fields when magnetic and nonmagnetic cylindrical product are placed in it. To realize this goal in the work, a transducer with translational symmetry of excitation magnetic field has been developed. Translation symmetry typical example is the field of a long current conductor. The paper considers quasi-static electromagnetic field with the wavelength that exceeds characteristic transverse dimensions of conductor and cylinder. As the study result it is seen a satisfactory coincidence of the calculated and experimentally obtained values of the EMF of the transducer output signal in the cases of the product absence and with variety of products. As for example for measuring windings with angular coordinates φ = 30° and 60° an error of voltage values difference is less than 10%. The study shows that the advantage of such transducers while operating on one fixed frequency is capability to perform the multi-parameter testing on account of processing of certain amount of some spatial harmonics of excitation field.
