PS Velocity Meter of Rock Specimen (Sonic Viewer SX)
The Sonic Viewer-SX is an instrument to figure out P-wave and S-wave velocities by measuring the travel time of ultrasonic wave through a boring core or a rock specimen with high accuracy, and further is capable of calculating such factors as dynamic Poisson’s ratio and dynamic elastic coefficient. or measurements, a specimen is sandwiched between two transducers, high voltage pulse is applied to one transducer for the generation of ultrasonic wave and, then, another transducer receives the wave propagating through the specimen. Waveform data is displayed on its color LCD, and propagation time can be read out from the waveform with a high degree of accuracy.
