Abstract

This paper describes the design and implementation of a low frequency hydrophone calibration system, using a vibrating water column. The hydrophone to be calibrated is immersed in the water column and the position of the transducer is kept constant while a hydrodynamic pressure field is generated in the water column by means of a shaker (similar to what is described in IEC 60565). F. Schloss et al. used a vibrating water column for hydrophone calibration in the frequency range from 10 Hz to 700 Hz.1 An interlaboratory comparison calibration was carried out by the Russian Metrological Institute of Technical Physics and Radio Engineering (VNIIFTRI) and Hangzhou Applied Acoustics Research Institute (HAARI) in the frequency range from 250 Hz to 1 kHz.2 The dimensions of the test vessel are important for deciding the frequency range of operation. Simulations were carried out for the selection of vessel material and dimension. To overcome limitations in the frequency range caused by resonance in the water column, the principle of operation was modified from absolute calibration to calibration by comparison. By using a single cylindrical vessel, the frequency range is extended to cover frequencies from less than 100 Hz to 1 kHz. The calibrated reference hydrophone type Bruel & Kjaer (B&K) 8104 is used in this calibration. Some results obtained from the use of the calibration system are also presented in this paper. 1

基于振动水柱原理的低频水听器标定装置的设计与建立

本文介绍了一种基于振动水柱的低频水听器标定系统的设计与实现。待校准的水听器浸入水柱中，传感器的位置保持恒定，同时通过振动筛在水柱中产生水动压力场(类似于IEC 60565中所描述的)。F. Schloss等人使用振动水柱在10 Hz至700 Hz的频率范围内进行水听器校准1 .俄罗斯技术物理与无线电工程计量研究所(VNIIFTRI)和杭州应用声学研究所(HAARI)在250 Hz至1 khz的频率范围内进行了实验室间比较校准2试验容器的尺寸对于确定工作频率范围很重要。对容器材料和尺寸的选择进行了仿真。为了克服水柱共振对频率范围的限制，将操作原理从绝对校准改为比较校准。通过使用单个圆柱形容器，频率范围扩展到覆盖从小于100赫兹到1千赫的频率。校准时使用的参考水听器类型为Bruel & Kjaer (B&K) 8104。文中还介绍了使用该标定系统所得到的一些结果。1

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration (IJAV) is the refereed open-access journal of the International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration (IIAV). The IIAV is a non-profit international scientific society founded in 1995. The primary objective of the Institute is to advance the science of acoustics and vibration by creating an international organization that is responsive to the needs of scientists and engineers concerned with acoustics and vibration problems all around the world. Manuscripts of articles, technical notes and letters-to-the-editor should be submitted to the Editor-in-Chief via the on-line submission system. Authors wishing to submit an article need to log in on the IJAV website first. Users logged into the website are able to submit new articles, track the status of their articles already submitted, upload revised articles, responses and/or rebuttals to reviewers, figures, biographies, photographs, copyright transfer agreements, and send comments to the editor. Each time the status of an article submitted changes, the author will also be notified automatically by email. IIAV members (in good standing for at least six months) can publish in IJAV free of charge and their papers will be displayed on-line immediately after they have been edited and laid-out. Non-IIAV members will be required to pay a mandatory Article Processing Charge (APC) of $200 USD if the manuscript is accepted for publication after review. The APC fee allows IIAV to make your research freely available to all readers using the Open Access model. In addition, Non-IIAV members who pay an extra voluntary publication fee (EVPF) of $500 USD will be granted expedited publication in the IJAV Journal and their papers can be displayed on the Internet after acceptance. If the $200 USD (APC) publication fee is not honored, papers will not be published. Authors who do not pay the voluntary fixed fee of $500 USD will have their papers published but there may be a considerable delay. The English text of the papers must be of high quality. If the text submitted is of low quality the manuscript will be more than likely rejected. For authors whose first language is not English, we recommend having their manuscripts reviewed and edited prior to submission by a native English speaker with scientific expertise. There are many commercial editing services which can provide this service at a cost to the authors.
