Definitions

  • the invention relates to methods for determining acoustic parameters of liquids in an acoustic resonator, in particular a method for determining absolute acoustic sizes of the liquids from a sequence of acoustic liquid resonances, and a resonator arrangement for carrying out such a method.
  • An acoustic resonator is an application-dependent shaped container in which a quantity of liquid is excited to mechanical vibrations, which are reflected as sound waves between two opposite walls of the container.
  • the excitation takes place with electrical or magnetic elements (electroacoustic or magnetoacoustic transmitters), which are acoustically coupled to the container.
  • the liquid oscillations have resonances at certain frequencies, the reflected sound waves interfering with one another in such a way that they intensify to form a spatially standing wave.
  • the resonance frequencies depend on the shape and nature (e.g.
  • the resonance frequencies are determined, for example, by recording electrical measured variables (eg current, voltage) at the transmitter or by recording the vibration amplitudes with acoustically coupled receiver elements.
  • WO 94/24526 describes an ultrasound measuring device with a non-piezoelectric resonator chamber body and electroacoustic transducers arranged on the outside thereof.
  • the inner walls of the resonator chamber form an ideal resonator for generating standing linear acoustic waves in the liquid.
  • the resonator chamber body must be manufactured with particular precision.
  • the most effective possible coupling of the external electroacoustic transducers with acoustically conductive layers is provided.
  • the area of application of the conventional ultrasonic measuring device is limited because of the complex structure of the resonator chamber body.
  • WO 95/12123 discloses a method for evaluating acoustic-electrical measured variables for obtaining acoustic parameters or variables derived therefrom. This method requires comparison measurements to be carried out with a measuring resonator filled with a liquid sample and a reference resonator containing a known liquid. It is disadvantageous to carry out reference measurements, since they represent an additional measurement effort and possibly impair the accuracy of the measurement variable evaluation.
  • the object of the invention is to provide improved methods and devices for determining acoustic parameters and / or sizes of liquids derived therefrom, with which the disadvantages of the conventional techniques are avoided.
  • an acoustic characterization of the liquids should be made possible with increased accuracy, without the need for a reference measurement.
  • the method should also be implementable with a simplified resonator structure.
  • the invention is based on the idea of stimulating acoustic vibrations of the liquid to be examined in a resonator, which vibrations from at least one further resonator solid material are coupled so that a common vibration spectrum is formed, and from the common vibration spectrum in the vicinity of the natural frequency of the at least one further resonator acoustic properties of the liquid, such as. B. to determine the speed of sound in the liquid, the acoustic impedance, the density and, where appropriate, visco-elastic properties of the liquid.
  • the natural frequency of the coupled fixed resonator should be at least 10 times higher than the lowest frequency (fundamental frequency) of the first (liquid) resonator.
  • the frequency spectrum of the coupled vibrations consists of a sequence of resonance frequencies with successive (or increasing or decreasing) ordinal numbers.
  • the inventors have found that the resonance frequencies in the range of the natural frequency of the coupled (solid-state) resonator deviate strongly in a predetermined manner from the linear harmonic sequence of an ideal, non-coupled resonator.
  • the desired acoustic properties of the liquid can advantageously be determined from the deviation.
  • a wall of the resonator arrangement which is set up to form thickness vibrations at a predetermined excitation frequency, can serve as the coupled resonator made of a solid material.
  • an electroacoustic transducer can be used as the fixed resonator, which is coupled to the (liquid) resonator and is operated in the region of its natural frequency.
  • the deviations of the resonance frequencies of the coupled vibrations from the resonance frequencies in the ideal resonator are evaluated using a simulation function to characterize the coupling between the two resonators.
  • the desired acoustic properties of the liquid result from the simulation function in the manner explained below.
  • the simulation function is also used Properties of the liquid also include known or empirically determined properties of the coupled solid resonator. The simulation function is thus dependent on the specific application, e.g. B. formed on the basis of an analysis of the resonator behavior or empirically.
  • the properties of the fixed resonator advantageously do not change, so that the real coupled resonance system indirectly fulfills the function of a reference oscillator with a reference spectrum.
  • a resonator arrangement according to the invention for characterizing acoustic properties of a liquid comprises in particular a resonator chamber for receiving the liquid and at least one sound transducer which is attached to the resonator chamber, the sound transducer contacting the resonator chamber and / or the liquid from the outside.
  • the sound transducer is operated in a predetermined range of excitation frequencies, which includes the natural resonance, for example, of the thickness vibration of a wall that is in contact with the liquid and reflects the sound waves in the liquid.
  • the resonator chamber forms a container for the liquid to be examined.
  • the material capable of natural vibrations, in contact with the liquid and reflecting the sound waves is formed by the active sound transducer itself, or it is stimulated from the outside by the sound transducer in the area of the natural vibrations, the frequency of which should be much higher than the difference frequency of two successive resonance frequencies of the liquid.
  • the inner transducer or wall surface in the resonator chamber is hereinafter generally referred to as the inner wall.
  • the conventional resonator arrangements are designed in such a way that there is as little coupling as possible of vibrating elements that are outside the liquids.
  • particular care had to be taken to evaluate only a few undisturbed liquid resonances, the frequencies of which are influenced as little as possible by the natural frequency of the transducer used for excitation.
  • the invention is based precisely on the natural influencing of the resonator behavior by at least one coupled external resonance to obtain additional information about the acoustic liquid properties.
  • the evaluation of the deviation of the frequency properties of a sequence of liquid resonances from the ideal behavior has the advantage that a resonator arrangement with a simplified structure can be used.

  • FIG. 2 shows a curve to illustrate the excitation of liquid resonances
  • FIG. 3 shows a first embodiment of a resonator arrangement according to the invention
  • Figure 4 shows a second embodiment of a resonator arrangement according to the invention
  • Figure 5 shows a third embodiment of a resonator arrangement according to the invention.
  • the resonance frequencies of a liquid form a harmonic series only under ideal conditions, in which the individual resonance frequencies are related to each other according to a simple and physical law.
  • the ideal conditions would include, for example, an infinitely extensive plane of wave propagation or a 100% reflection on the transducer surfaces. Under real conditions, however, the measured resonance frequencies of a liquid deviate from the ideal harmonic series.
  • This deviation is caused by the phase difference between the incident on an inner wall (transducer or chamber wall surface) and the reflected sound wave.
  • the phase difference results from the difference between the complex acoustic impedance of the liquid on the one hand and the impedance of the inner wall on the other.
  • Acoustic impedance is the relationship between sound pressure and local velocity of mass displacement. In the case of resonance, both quantities are in phase, so that the imaginary part of the complex impedance disappears.
  • the adjacent material of the inner wall does not have an infinite impedance, the sound wave incident from the liquid partially penetrates into it and is partially reflected in further adjacent material layers or on the coupled acoustic transducers. The incident sound pressure shifts the container wall and thereby periodically changes its geometry.
  • a liquid resonance is given if the superposition of the incident and reflected wave leads to a maximum total amplitude of the standing sound wave in the liquid. This is the case if the imaginary part of the com- plex impedance (or the phase difference between reflected and traveling wave) at the interface between liquid and inner wall disappears.
  • the phase differences mentioned and the liquid resonance frequencies determined thereby are then also determined by the sound wavelength and the acoustic impedance of the liquid.
  • the resonance frequencies are only determined by the ratio of the wavelength to the geometric dimensions of the container.
  • the acoustic impedance of the liquid is irrelevant, provided that the acoustic impedance of the walls of the resonator can ideally be set to zero or infinity.
  • the speed of sound in the liquid could be calculated from measured liquid resonances.
  • the error that occurs is generally low, provided that the resonator arrangements used are very well approximated to the ideal geometry and the excitation takes place in frequency ranges that avoid coupling to specific resonances of the resonator arrangement (wall material and / or transducer resonances). This is used in conventional acoustic measurements.
  • the speed of sound can then be determined from the precise measurement of only a single resonance frequency, since all ideal resonances depend in a mathematically unambiguous way only on the speed of sound.
  • n of the measured resonance is initially unknown, especially in the case of high ordinal numbers, two adjacent harmonic resonances are generally determined and an approximate value of the fundamental frequency is determined from the difference in the resonance frequencies.
  • the harmonic atomic number results from the ratio of the resonance frequency and the fundamental frequency. To determine the atomic number, the quotient of the resonance frequency and the fundamental frequency is rounded down to the nearest integer n. The number of half-waves in the standing wave figure of the relevant resonance results. With n and the known distance D between the reflecting walls, the wavelength is obtained
  • the deviation of the measurable resonance frequencies for a certain geometry of the resonator from the resonance frequencies of an ideal resonator is used according to the invention.
  • the deviations are particularly strong in the vicinity of their own resonance of the reflecting structure. This is illustrated in Figure 1.
