THE TRANSMISSION OF SOUND IN A MOVING FLUID.

Abstract

Developing a measuring technique to determine the performance of acoustic elements in moving streams of water was accomplished to at least a first order of magnitude. The system developed indicates, as illustrated by the data presented in the report, that a signal can be introduced at one end of a simulated piping system and that its output can be analyzed to demonstrate the type of element present in the system as well as its acoustic performance both under flow and no-flow conditions. Training undergraduate mechanical and electrical engineers in the problems of acoustics as associated with moving fluids is also being accomplished.
