摘要
Electromagnetic acoustic transducers (EMATs) operating in transmitting mode are examined. Two different finite element formulations, derived for two different definitions of source current density, are compared in order to show the importance of skin and proximity effects. An EMAT consisting of six source conductors is modeled as an example. Results obtained with an earlier method are compared with new FEM results at two different frequencies. The effect of lift-off and distance between conductors is investigated.
