System and method for acoustic spectroscopy for fluid measurement

Abstract

Described herein are systems and methods for performing acoustic spectroscopy using pulsed transmission-reception or pulse-echo techniques. A system includes a central hole for direct insertion of a liquid of interest to be analyzed, or a cuvette with a liquid for acoustic coupling. Two additional holes are arranged on the sides of the central hole. An acoustic transducer can fit into each side hole. A sealing ring ensures the system is sealed. The system includes support arms to support the weight of the transducers. The end of each arm includes an elliptical-shaped structure with three holes configured to receive nuts and bolts that are used to move the transducers to ensure the transducers obtain quality signals and maintain the position of the transducers in a desired position to facilitate repeatability in successive experiments.
