Abstract
An ultrasonic velocimeter system utilizing two nearly identical velocimeters was developed that could measure the difference in speeds of sound between pure liquids and solutions over the pressure range ambient to 2000 psi and the temperature range ambient to 100 degrees C. Accuracy of two parts in 10(-6) in frequency corresponding to an average deviation in the speed of sound of .3 cm/sec is demonstrated.
