Abstract
This paper presents an analytical solution for the change of the imped ance of a double conductor line due to eddy currents induced in presen ce of an infinitely long horizontal cylindrical flaw with vertically s ymmetric cross-section. The solution, found by a perturbation method, is applicable in the case' the conductivities of the flaw and of the s urrounding material do not differ by much. Numerical results for flaws of circular and elliptic cross-sections are presented.
