Abstract

The results of research into the design and optimization of laboratory sources of intense airborne ultrasound are reported. Two types of sources are studied: multielement arrays of small-size piezoelectric radiators and single membrane transducers of a capacitor type. The measured characteristics of the ultrasound fields and the audible sound fields generated in air due to the nonlinear interaction of high-frequency waves are presented. Applications of nonlinear acoustic problems in air are discussed.
