Abstract:
According to the transfer matrix, the expression of the echo energy transmission coefficient come from multiple mediums in ultrasonic liquid level testing is derived. In a certain medium structure, the echo energy transmission coefficient changing with the ultrasonic testing frequency is studied and the maximum magnitude is obtained. The result shows that in order to obtain the strong echo signal, a suitable selection of the ultrasonic transducer operating frequency is necessary.
