Example
measurement in reflection arrangement
2 transducer mounting fixtures Variofix L
transducer with frequency M
width of damping mat: 50 mm
outer pipe diameter: 100 mm
length of Variofix L: 310 mm
number of reflection points: 1
calculation of the mounting length (see Tab. 6.1):
transducer damping mat: l
S2
= 660 mm
pipe damping mat: l
R
= 350 mm
The total mounting length is 1010 mm.
Fig. 6.7:
Outer pipe diameter < 900 mm
1 – transducer damping mats
2 – pipe damping mats
3 – reflection point
The transducer damping mats are mounted lengthwise on the pipe. The pipe damping mats can be mounted lengthwise
or crosswise on the pipe. In this example, they are mounted lengthwise.
Number of damping mats
The damping mats are mounted on the entire pipe circumference.
pipe circumference: 2πr = 315 mm
number of damping mats to be mounted: 315 mm / 50 mm = 6.3
6 damping mats (1010 mm × 50 mm) + 1 damping mat (1010 mm × 15 mm)
The damping mats can be cut into smaller pieces to facilitate the installation.
