Description

Studies on quantitative measurements of acoustic properties of solids, liquids, and biological materials in the VHF and UHF ranges have been conducted. Reliable data for acoustic properties of distilled water in the frequency ranges have been needed since measurements are performed using the water data as the reference. In this paper, ultrasonic attenuation coefficients of water are determined in the frequency range 50 MHz to 1 GHz and in the temperature range 20℃ to 30 ℃. Diffraction losses are corrected by performing numerical calculation using Williams' formula. The measured attenuation coefficients are proportional to the square of frequency over the frequency range. The value a/f^2 is 21.1×10^<-15>s^2/m at 25.0℃ and is about 4% less than that measured by Pinkerton. The temperature coefficient is -0.61×10^<-15> s^2/m /℃ in this temperature range.
