A sonar dome is basically designed and installed to protect sonar array from shocks, sea wave slaps and floating matters. The acoustic wave passing through sonar dome, however, can be distorted in magnitude and phase. This paper presents a numerical method for predicting the steady-state sound pressure on the surface of transducer array in the sonar dome and typical results of sonar beam pattern affected by sonar dome. A beam tracing model with phase information and a multi-layered elastic boundary model are involved. A full three-dimensional sonar dome is modeled as a GRP acoustic window, a rubber coated steel baffle and a rubber coated steel hull. A transducer array is modeled as thick steel cylinder. There are some assumptions such as incidence of plane wave, specular reflection on boundary and directionality of transducer element.

수상함정에 사용되는 능동소나는 통상적으로 구상선수부에 설치하게 된다. 따라서 구상선수부에 설치된 소나의 항해 중 유체력 및 수중 부유물에 의한 충돌 파손을 막기 위해 밀도가 낮으면서 강도가 높은 복합소재 재질의 소나돔 윈도우를 설치하게 된다. 외부 유체력 및 충격 발생 시 소나돔 윈도우의 안정도는 소나돔 윈도우 내외부의 압력 분포에 따라 달라지므로 본 연구에서는 소나돔 충, 배수 밸브의 상태에 따른 소나돔 윈도우의 내외부 압력변화를 해석적으로 검토하고 이에 따른 응력변화를 파악하고자 한다.

Knowledge of acoustic transmission loss of acoustic window material has a great importance for the sonar performance in ship. The purpose of this study was to investigate the measurement and analysis method for the acoustic transmission loss of the acoustic window materials for sonar dome. The measurement and analysis were carried out in water with GRP material. Transmission losses were calculated based on integrated direct and transmitted signals. The experimental setup enabled to vary the angle of incidence. Thus the transmission loss data could be expressed as the function of frequency and angle of rotation. In this paper, diffraction effect of incident angle, size of specimen with test material, transmission analysis method and multiple waves as incident acoustic signal were discussed.

The efficiency of active sonar that is used underwater observation equipment is important for obtain the information of topography and trace for the objects. Sound wave transmitted from sonar are distorted by acoustic window which is to protect sonar. Making various sonar dome is impossible for experiment, because consumed unnecessary time and expense. So, the purpose of this study is to simulate and analyze the acoustic window propagated sound wave from sonar for designing model reduced insertion loss. Simulation is performed by transient analysis and fluid-structure interaction analysis. As a result, this study will give a opportunity for efficient design of sonar dome without high cost and time consumption.

For developing acoustic window, transmission loss in accordance with incident angle was calculated and compared with measurement results. In design stage, the material choice of acoustic window is very important because the material is one of main parameters of transmission loss and structural strength. In order to analyze the effect of material properties on transmission loss, the parametric studies were carried out and the results were discussed in this paper. And, to verify the design specification of acoustic window, measurement was carried out and the results were compared and analyzed.
