AN EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT FOR THE 'WOBBLE-BOX' TRANSDUCERS USED IN THE A.R.L. TYPE 10 ARRAY

Abstract

The derivation of an equivalent circuit for the 'wobble-box' transducers used in the A.R.L. Type 10 array is described, and from it are obtained expressions for the coefficients of the matrix relating input voltage and current to output force and velocity. These expressions will be used in the near future to derive the basic transducer input data required for a Pegasus Computer analysis of the mutual impedance effects in this array. Type 10 is a bottom-laid, tripodmounted, low-frequency, high power underwater acoustic projector array constructed for the A.R.L. Veronica Research Programme into low frequency, high power Active Sonar Systems.
