Acoustic methods are indispensable in industrial monitoring. For maintenance, frequencies up to about 100 kHz are of great importance. Fundamentals and examples are presented for this purpose. The extension of methodology and technology to broadband ultrasound techniques provides new application possibilities. The reassessment of evaluation procedures makes it easier for users to interpret test results. Methods of material testing with ultrasound are not covered.
Content
- Fundamentals of Ultrasound Applications
- Extension of Methodology through Broadband Technology
- Ultrasound in Maintenance
- Application Example: Detection and Evaluation of Compressed Air Leaks
Target GroupsMaintenance personnel, plant operators, operators of compressed air systems, students of engineering sciences
The AuthorsPeter Holstein studied physics at the University of Leipzig and worked as an industrial physicist and university lecturer in various fields of acoustics and ultrasound.
Nicki Bader studied industrial design at Burg Giebichenstein in Halle and earned a doctorate on a topic in material acoustics. The work was carried out as part of their joint activities at SONOTEC GmbH.
The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.
This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
