29. INTRODUCTION
Classification of sound wave:-
1. Depends upon Frequency
2. Divided into 3 groups
Description Frequency range
Infra sound 0-20
Audible sound 20-20,000
Ultra sound >20,000-5M
30. PROPERTIES OF ULTRASONICS
They have a high energy content (high freq)
Speed of ultrasonic waves depends on frequency .
Their wavelengths are small as a result , their
penetrating power is high.
They can travel over long distances as a highly
directional beam.
Polarization: can not be polarized
31. CREATING ULTRASONIC WAVE
Ultrasonic waves are produced by the following
methods
1. Magneto-striction generator or oscillator
2. Piezo-electric generator or oscillator
32. MAGNETOSTRICTION METHOD
This method is used to generate low frequency
ultrasonic waves
Principle: Magnetostriction effect
When a magnetic field is applied parallel to the
length of a ferromagnetic rod made of
ferromagnetic materials such as iron or nickel, a
small elongation or contraction occurs in its length
33. MAGNETOSTRICTION METHOD
The change in length (increase or decrease) produced in
the rod depends upon
i) the strength of the magnetic field,
ii) the nature of the ferromagnetic materials
iii) does not depend of the direction of the field.
35. MAGNETOSTRICTION METHOD
XY is a rod of ferromagnetic materials like iron or
nickel. The rod is clamped in the middle.
The alternating magnetic field is generated by
electronic oscillator.
The coil L1 wound on the right hand portion of the
rod along with a variable capacitor C.
This forms the resonant circuit of the collector tuned
oscillator. The frequency of oscillator is controlled
by the variable capacitor.
The coil L2 wound on the left hand portion of the
rod is connected to the base circuit. The coil L2
acts as feed –back loop.
36. Working
• When High Tension (H.T) battery is switched on, the
collector circuit oscillates with a frequency,
f =
• This alternating current flowing through the coil L1
produces an alternating magnetic field along the length
of the rod. The result is that the rod starts vibrating due
to magnetostrictive effect.

37. The frequency of vibration of the rod is given by
f =
where l = length of the rod
E = Young’s modulus of the rod material and
=density of rod material
• The capacitor C is adjusted so that the frequency of the
oscillatory circuit is equal to natural frequency of the rod
and thus resonance takes place.
• Now the rod vibrates longitudinally with maximum
amplitude and generates ultrasonic waves of high
frequency from its ends.

production cost is low
2. At low ultrasonic frequencies, the large power output
can be produced without the risk of damage of the
oscillatory circuit.

ultrasonic frequency above 3000 kHz (ie. 3MHz).
2.The frequency of oscillations depends on temperature.
3.There will be losses of energy due to hysteresis and eddy
current.

MAGNETOSTRICTION METHOD
39. PIEZO ELECTRIC METHOD
If mechanical pressure is applied to one pair of opposite
faces of certain crystals like quartz, equal and opposite
electrical charges appear across its other faces. This is
called as piezo-electric effect.
The converse of piezo electric effect is also true.
If an electric field is applied to one pair of faces, the
corresponding changes in the dimensions of the other
pair of faces of the crystal are produced. This is known
as inverse piezo electric effect or electrostriction.
Principle : Inverse piezo electric effect
40. The circuit diagram is shown in Figure
Piezo electric oscillator
PIEZO ELECTRIC METHOD
41. The quartz crystal is placed between two metal plates A
and B.
The plates are connected to the primary (L3) of a
transformer which is inductively coupled to the electronics
oscillator.
The electronic oscillator circuit is a base tuned oscillator
circuit.
The coils L1 and L2 of oscillator circuit are taken from the
secondary of a transformer T.
The collector coil L2 is inductively coupled to base coil L1.
The coil L1 and variable capacitor C1 form the tank circuit
of the oscillator.
PIEZO ELECTRIC METHOD
42. When H.T. battery is switched on, the oscillator produces high
frequency alternating voltages with a frequency.
Due to the transformer action, an oscillatory e.m.f. is induced in the
coil L3. This high frequency alternating voltages are fed on the plates
A and B.
Inverse piezo-electric effect takes place and the crystal contracts and
expands alternatively. The crystal is set into mechanical vibrations.
The frequency of the vibration is given by

44. APPLICATION OF ULTRASONIC WAVES
SONAR
SONAR is a device which stands for Sound Navigation and
Ranging.
It is based on the principle of echo sounding.In this
technique high-frequency ultrasonic waves are used.
When ultrasonic waves are transmitted through water,they
get reflected by the objects under water.the change in
frequency of the echo signal due to the Doppler effect helps
us to determine the velocity,distance and direction of objects.
Using sonar the distance and direction of submarines,depth
of sea ,depth of rocks in the sea,the shoal of fish in the
sea.,can be determined.
