Acoustic Radiation Force Balance (ARFB) Measurement

Introduction
Acoustic Radiation Force Balance (ARFB) is used to measure the acoustic output of HIFU devices, where it is almost impossible for Needle Hydrophone to measure the High-power Output of those HIFU devices.
The usual working power is between 10-40W acoustic power output.

Experimental Setup
PA ARFB connection:
Power Cable 12V 0.8A (DO NOT MIX power cable)
RS-232 connection

Power Amplifier
Signal Generator
Degassed water bath

HIFU device
KJ01-02MHz follows equation
$$P_{out} = -0.1475. \mathrm{exp}(1.427.V_{pp}) +1.781. \mathrm{exp}(0.5747.V_{pp})$$
