Abstract

The analysis of optimization questions of the piezoelectric transducer for the polypropylene pipe wall thickness measurement is given. Theoretically and experimentally the maximum of the transducer sensitivity is obtained when the protector (acoustic delay layer) is produced from anti-friction material caprolone with graphite (caprolone+C).
