Abstract: A defect inspection system includes an X-ray generator that generates X-ray to be irradiated to a structure, and an X-ray detector that detects the X-ray generated by the X-ray generator and transmitted through the structure. In particular, the X-ray generator is configured to be moved by a first transporting means, and the X-ray detector is configured to be moved by a second transporting means. The system further includes a control unit configured to control and operate the first transporting means and the second transporting means.

Abstract: A method of detecting a defect in a wind turbine blade uses a system that includes an X-ray generator, moved by a first transporting means, that generates X-ray to be irradiated to the wind turbine blade; an X-ray detector, moved by a second transporting means, that detects the X-ray generated by the X-ray generator and transmitted through the wind turbine blade; and a control unit. To detect a defect, the control unit divides virtually the wind turbine blade into a plurality of lengthwise sections based on a thickness profile thereof, receives a location of the X-ray generator, and controls output of the X-ray generator based on the location of the X-ray generator relative to the plurality of lengthwise sections. In particular, the output of the X-ray generator is decreased for a section among the plurality of lengthwise sections that is farther from a hub of the wind turbine blade.
