MPa The Peak Rarefactional Acoustic Pressure is the maximum of the
modulus of the negative instantaneous acoustic pressure
expressed as a positive number.
2
The maximum value of the temporal average derived intensity in
mW/cm
an acoustic field. For systems in combined operating mode, the
time interval over which the temporal average is taken is
sufficient to include any period during which scanning may not be
taking place.
User selectable system settings which may include Application,
SV and Focal Length.
mm This is the distance from the transducer output face to the point
of maximum pulse-pressure-squared integral (or max mean
square acoustic pressure for continuous pressure for CW)
mm This is the -6dB pulse beamwidth in the beam axis (X) at the
point of max pulse-pressure-squared integral (or max mean
square acoustic pressure for continuous pressure for CW). If
the beamwidths in X and Y differ than less than 10%, there is no
need to specify both. For scanning modes, the beam-widths shall
correspond to the central scan line only.
mm This is the -6dB pulse beamwidth in the elevational axis (Y) at the
point of max pulse-pressure-squared integral (or max mean
square acoustic pressure for continuous pressure for CW). If the
beamwidths in X and Y differ than less than 10%, there is no
need to specify both. For scanning modes, the beam-widths shall
correspond to the central scan line only.
kHz Pulse Repetition Rate is the rate of successive pulses or
tonebursts and applies to single element non-scanning systems
and automatic scanning systems.
