applications of ultrasonics

Answer» 1. Detection of flows (cracks, blowholes, porosity) in metala.2. In SONAR (Sound Navigation And Ranging).3. Ultrasonic welding.4. Ultrasonic cutting and machining.5. Ultrasonic soldering.<br>Ultrasound waves are used in many different fields. Ultrasonic devices are used to detect objects and measure distances. ... In the nondestructive testing of products and structures, ultrasound is used to detect invisible flaws. Industrially, ultrasound is used for cleaning, mixing, and to accelerate chemical processes.<br>Medical applications\tUltrasonic waves are used to\xa0capture the images\xa0of the heart and its features and problems associated with the heart, if any (for treatment purpose). This is called\xa0echocardiography.\tUltrasound scans/Ultrasonography\xa0are very commonly used to get images of internal body organs such as liver, kidney, uterus. It helps the doctor to diagnose and treat problems in the body of the patient. In this method, ultrasound waves are made to travel through the body to the organ under consideration. They get reflected and these are converted to electrical signals which can be monitored on a screen.\tUltrasonography\xa0is used to observe the growth of the\xa0fetus\xa0inside the uterus. It can also used to monitor the abnormalities.\tIt is used to break\xa0kidney stones\xa0into fine grains which later get flushed out through urine. Industrial Applications\tUltrasound is used to\xa0clean machine parts\xa0located in places which are not easily accesible - electronic components, internal parts, spiral parts etc. The objects are placed in a cleaning solution and waves are passed through it. Because of the high frequency of the waves, the dust particles just fall out.\tIt is used to\xa0detect defects, flaws, cracks\xa0in machine parts, bridges, building etc. Ultrasound waves are passed at one end and monitored using detectors. If there are laws or cracks, then the ultrasound waves are reflected back indicating the presence of a defect.
