Sonar Transducer Reliability Improvement Program, FY79 First Quarter Progress

Abstract

Progress accomplished during the first quarter of FY79 in the Sonar Transducer Reliability Improvement Program (STRIP) is reported. Each of the nine program tasks is discussed in some detail. The most significant aspects are improvements in the gas-filling procedures for the TR155 transducers, results of accelerated aging of the TR215 transducers, the determination of only very low levels of noise radiated from the TR215 transducers, and the evaluation of several design changes on the AT200 and TR297 transducers.
