Abstract

This study aims to design and construct a passive cavitation detector(PCD), which has high sensitive to low frequency components of periodic shock waves. This device will feature a geometrically focused, curved active element surface, A finite element model in PZflex was created to simulate the detecting process of the focused shock wave passive cavitation detector (PZflex). And the performance is evaluated against the novel shock wave passive cavitation detector (swPCD), which was designed and constructed by the cavitation laboratory (Cavlab), medical and industrial ultrasonic (MIU).
