| Research Abstract |
A phased array Ultrasonic inspection flow rate measurement system was developed. This measurement system employs phased array technique to reduce noise from multiple reflections which occurs in a wedge. However, phased array technique has several difficulties one of them is about grating lobes. Thus, the array sensor was designed to reduce the grating lobes using numerical analysis. Performance of the manufactured array sensor was evaluated by experimental measurements of sound pressure distribution emitted from the array sensor, and optimal parameters to control the array sensor were obtained. Hardware with a 8-channel pulser/receiver and a PC with A/D converter, and software of the ultrasonic velocity profile measurement system with a phased array sensor were also developed. The software is based on ultrasonic Doppler method with autocorrelation method.
