Regarding dimensional measurements, wall thickness measurements is based on the measurement of the time of flight of longitudinal waves in the inspected object.
At points where the acoustic impedance changes the ultrasonic waves are reflected more or less strongly. The wall thickness measurement takes advantage of this.
Outer diameter can additionally be determined with a known distance of the probe to the center of the rotation and measurement of the water path (acoustic path in the coupling water surrounding the part). The inner diameter, eccentricity, ovality (deviation from the circular shape) can be determined by the combination of the measurements results of the water path and wall thickness.
