The Fundamentals of Particle Size Analysis by Means of Ultrasonic Spectrometry

Abstract: The interaction of suspended particles with ultrasonic waves can lead to changes in the sonic velocity and also to extinction of the waves. An evaluation of the frequency dependence of ultrasonic extinction offers the most appropriate means of determining the concentration and size distribution of particles suspended in a fluid. With an experimental apparatus covering the frequency range from 1.7 to 81 MHz, particles ranging from about 20 to 1000 μm in diameter can be analysed. The measurements can be conducte… Show more

“…In recent years ultrasonic spectroscopy has emerged as a technique that could characterize such particle systems in on-line applications. A great deal has already been written about the use of ultrasound to determine the PSD in dilute slurries and suspensions [2,3]. The basic concept is to measure the frequency-dependent attenuation or velocity of the ultrasound as it passes through the sample.…”
