0 Introduction

Chung and Blaser(1980)[1-3]developed transfer function method to measure the reflections, input impedance and transmission loss of materials in the air.Goodman(1985)[4]applied for patent using this method to measure the input impedance in water.Wilson(2003)[5-6]described the propagation in the impedance tube filled with water in detail,and use impedance tube to measure the reflections of water layer with bubbles.Tao and Seybert(2001)[7]reviewed three kinds of methods to measure the transmission loss in pipe using transfer function method.

A new method to measure the impedance matrix is developed in these years.Impedance matrix is the unchanged parameter of acoustic material.The impedance matrix could be used to evaluate the acoustic properties with different backings,and it is a more efficient way than measuring the absorption coefficients or transmission loss directly.To measure the acoustic properties of underwater material,Cole and Martini(1994)[8]from Cambridge Acoustical Associates(USA)designed new acoustic impedance tube,PZT-8 piezoelectric rings and a beryllium piston are composed to be a low-frequency driver,transfer function of sound pressure in the tube and vibration of piston are measured to analyze the impedance matrix.Krylov Insti-tute developed the impedance tube to measure the acoustic properties of pipe parts.Akoum and Ville(1998)[9]used Fourier-Lommel transform to develop acoustic impedance test method in the tube.Reflections of plane-wave(0 order)and high-order modes could be analyzed by separating the incidence and reflection wave.Dalmont(2001)[10-11]converted the transfer matrix to impedance matrix.

1 Impedance matrix

1.1 Transfer matrix method

The acoustic material layer could be characterized as a two-port linear system(Fig.1) when the material layer is located in a water filled tube which could be treated as a plane wave sound field in low frequency.

Fig.1 Two-port model

where P1and P2are the sound pressure at input end and output end,V1and V2are the volume velocity at input end and output end,Z11and Z22are the input impedance at input end and output end,Z12and Z21are the transfer impedance at input end and output end,respectively.

The impedance parameters could be determined at special boundary conditions.

To ensure the volume velocity at output end V2=0,the output end should be absolutely rigid,which means that the inertial impedance of output end should be infinity.Practically backing mass made from steel is used to represent the inertial impedance.

1.2 Impedance matrix of isotropic material

For isotropic material sample,the input impedance and transfer impedance are determined by Eqs.(6-7):

where HLis the thickness of sample,ρLis the density of sample,cLis the sound speed of sample.

1.3 Impedance matrix test method

The acoustic tube is shown in Fig.2,P1and P2are the sound pressure at input end and output end,V1and V2are the volume velocity at input end and output end.Two hydrophones are mounted on the wall of the tube,located at l and l+d before the input end to measure the sound pressure Pa1and Pa2,then the sound pressure P1and particle velocity V1of input end could be analyzed.The third hydrophone is mounted at the output end,just at the joints between sample and backing mass.The backing mass is treated as rigid backing,thus the particle velocity at output end V2≈0.

Fig.2 Scheme of acoustic test apparatus

where ρωcωis the characteristic impedance of water.

Thus the pressure and particle velocity at location l could be:

The pressure and particle velocity at location l+d could be:

From Eqs.(12-13),the amplitudes of injective sound and reflective sound,i.e.A and Bcould be solved,thus the sound pressure P1and particle velocity V1at input end are easily obtained,thus the input impedance is:

The transfer impedance is

where H1=Pa2/Pa1,H2=Pa3/Pa1.

2 Apparatus design

The apparatus(Fig.3)is based on an acoustic tube with the same diameter,the lower end is a sound driver which produces sound wave,and the upper end is the material sample and backing mass.The whole acoustic tube is filled with pressured water.

2.1 Tube

The whole tube is made from stainless steel,the diameter of tube is 120 mm,and the wall thickness of tube is 60 mm,first,the tube could be pressured more than 6 MPa,second, the tube is rigid enough to make sure the plane wave exist(Fig.4).

Fig.3 Acoustic impedance test apparatus

Fig.4 Sound speed of plane wave(0-order wave)

To seal the water from air,O-rings are used at both the driver and the top cover.Hydraulic connection locates at the lower part of the tube to fill water,pneumatic connection locates at the top cover to release the gas.

2.2 Driver

A long tonpilz driver(Fig.5)comprised by PZT rings is designed to get wide-band sound power in the tube.The injection sound pressure level is larger than 110 dB in 100-2 000 Hz,and the SNR is more than 20 dB.The driver could be working under the pressure 7 MPa.The driver and the tube are sealed with 2 O-rings.

Fig.5 The scheme figure and photo of driver

2.3 Backing mass

Generally,if the input impedance of backing mass(Fig.6)is ten times larger than the characteristic impedance of water,the backing mass could be treated as rigid backing.The thickness of the whole backing mass is 490 mm,the theoretically input impedance at 600-5 000 Hz is larger than 10 times of characteristic impedance of water,which is verified by using test under several pressure up to 3 MPa(Fig.7).

Fig.6 Steel backing mass

The input impedance of steel mass backing has a very little change with the change of environmental pressure.Because the characteristic impedance changes very little with pressure, so the effect of pressure on measurement system could be negligible.

2.4 Hydrophones

To limit the measurement uncertainty of transfer function,the distance of two hydrophones should be 0.1π<kd<0.8π,where k is the wavenumber,d is hydrophone distance.So the applicable frequency is 0.05c/d<f<0.4c/d.Four hydrophones and three kinds of distances(0.05 m,0.12 m and 0.4 m)are used to cover the whole measurement frequency span 100 Hz~2 kHz.

3 Using impedance matrix to evaluate the absorption and transmission loss of underwater material

3.1 Absorption parameters using impedance

It is not intuitive to evaluate the properties of acoustic material from the impedance matrix.Usually the sound absorption coefficients and sound transmission loss are used to evaluate the properties of acoustic material,which could be converted from impedance matrix.

Suppose the acoustic material is isotropic material,d is the thickness,characteristic impedance is ρc,the impedance coefficients is:

The surface impedance could be

where zbis the surface impedance of backing structure.

From the surface impedance,the reflection coefficients R is

Thus the sound absorption coefficients is

It is easy to know that,different backing corresponding to Zbwill bring different reflection coefficients.To evaluate the acoustic character of coating materials,the acoustic character should be taken into account.

3.2 Transmission loss parameters using impedance

The incident sound pressure piAand reflection sound pressure prAcould be obtained from the impedance matrix and the transmitted sound pressure pt(Fig.9).

Fig.9 The acoustic parameters of coating material

The sound transmission loss could be represented using impedance parameters.

4 Measurement results

4.1 Impedance matrix verification

To verify the method,two kinds of model made by isotropic material water and rubber are measured.The typical impedance matrix of water and rubber could be analyzed using their characteristic impedance.

The water models with three kinds of thickness 50 mm,100 mm and 200 mm,the rubber model with two kinds of thickness 50 mm and 200 mm,are tested(Fig.10).

The input impedance and transfer impedance of water layer(Fig.11)are highly in accordance with theoretical results above 500 Hz-1 kHz,below this frequency span,the test results go to bad because the backing mass is not rigid enough,the input impedance of backing mass does not meet the condition of‘rigid backing’(Figs.12-13).

When the water layer becomes thicker,the lower end of effective frequency span gets lower,the reason is that when the water layer becomes thicker,the phase shift induced by thetransmission in the water gets bigger,the relative measurement error induced by the phase error of test system gets smaller,thus the frequency becomes effective in lower frequency span.

Fig.10 Measured input impedance of water

Fig.11 Measured transfer impedance of water

Fig.12 Theoretical and measured input impedance of rubber sample(50 mm thickness)

Fig.13 Theoretical and measured transfer impedance of rubber sample(50 mm thickness)

The impedance matrix of rubber sample(50 mm thickness)is measured,compared with theoretical impedance,they are well in accordance upon 800 Hz.

4.2 Absorption parameters verification

Using measured impedance matrix of rubber sample to calculate the sound absorption coefficients of rubber sample with steel backing,compared with the directly measured sound absorption coefficients.Measured and converted SAC are highly in accordance,the difference is less than 0.1 from 100 Hz to 5 kHz,and averaging error is less than 5%.

4.3 Transmission loss parameters verification

Water is acoustic transparent,the theoretical transmission loss for acoustic layer is 0 dB. The measurement results show that transmission loss for 10 cm thickness varies between-2 dB to 4 dB from 400 Hz to 5 kHz,especially,the measurement results are less than 1dB different from theoretical results from 2 000 Hz to 5 000 Hz.High pressure bring better results, the measurement results at 3 MPa have much less error than atmosphere.
