Abstract

This paper describes the optimization of the hexagonal array transducer using finite element method. The transducer consists of the disc type sensors. Three dimensional beam patterns of each element and the array transducer are analysed using the finite element code ATILA. Beam patterns were analyzed for the disc type transducer. To optimize beam patterns of the array transducer, Chebyshev polynomial weight is applied to each element. In case of applying optimized weight, a 30 degree width beam pattern is presented at 10kHz. This paper also includes the effect of rubber filling material instead of using the water inside the transducer array.
