A non-destructive inspection system includes a non-destructive inspection apparatus and a management apparatus. The non-destructive inspection apparatus includes: a neutron emission unit capable of emitting a neutron beam; a gamma-ray detector capable of detecting a gamma ray; an apparatus case covering the neutron emission unit and the gamma-ray detector and including an opening; an outer shutter configured to open and close the opening; dose monitors each provided on the apparatus case and configured to detect a radioactive dose; an apparatus communication unit capable of transmitting apparatus information including the detected radioactive dose to the management apparatus and capable of receiving inspection permission information from the management apparatus; and an apparatus control unit configured to open the outer shutter and allows emission of the neutron beam from the neutron emission unit upon acquisition of the inspection permission information.

Non-destructive inspection device and non- destructive inspection system

A non-destructive inspection system includes: a neutron emission unit capable of emitting neutrons having a first neutron dose; a neutron detection unit capable of detecting a second neutron dose of neutrons scattered inside an inspection object A by the emission of the neutrons from the neutron emission unit; a gamma-ray detection unit capable of detecting a gamma dose of gamma rays released from the inspection object A by the emission of the neutrons from the neutron emission unit; and an analysis unit configured to calculate a content of a predetermined substance based on the gamma dose and correct the content of the predetermined substance based on the first neutron dose and the second neutron dose.

Nondestructive inspection system

A non-destructive inspection system includes: a neutron emission unitcapable of emitting neutrons pulsed; a neutron detector capable of detecting the neutrons emitted from the neutron emission unit and penetrating through an inspection object; a storage unit storing attenuation information indicating a relationship between a material of the inspection object and attenuation of the neutrons; and a calculation unit capable of calculating distance information indicating a position of a specific portion in the inspection object in accordance with time change information which is information on a change over time in an amount of the neutrons detected by the neutron detector. The calculation unit is capable of generating information related to an amount of the specific portion from information based on the amount of the neutrons according to the time change information, using the distance information and the attenuation information.
