Abstract
Dual element angle beam transducers have been shown to have improved performance characteristics in many cases, especially in severely attenuative environments. An experimental study has been conducted confirming a higher signal-to-noise ratio for dual element transducers compared to single element ones. A theoretical study is also included that could be used for transducer performance optimization purposes for such design parameters as transducer shape, crystal separation distance, roof angle, etc. Experimental verification of the theoretical model, as well as an explanation of the better performance characteristics of these transducers, is presented.
