Study of the Radiation Characteristics of Saucer-Shape Transducer

In order to study the radiation characteristics of the Saucer-Shape transducer, the vibration mode and electro-acoustic performance of the transducer were simulated and analyzed by using finite element software, and a transducer prototype was designed and manufactured. The measured results show that within the frequency band of 1.5~3kHz, the transmission voltage response fluctuation is less than 3dB, the source level is more than 196dB, the source level at the resonance point is more than 200dB, and the hydrostatic pressure resistance is more than 5MPa. The results show that the Saucer-Shape transducer not only has wide working band but also enables large transmitting power.
