Abstract

Disclosed is an ultrasonic transducer including: at least one piezoelectric wafer having two parallel planar main faces: a front face and a posterior face; at least one posterior plate having two parallel planar main faces: an anterior face and a rear face, the anterior face of the posterior plate extending facing, and in contact with, the posterior face of the piezoelectric wafer. The posterior plate has a thickness between three and seven times the thickness of the piezoelectric wafer. The posterior plate has an acoustic impedance between 10 MPa·s·m−1 and 35 MPa·s·m−1. Also disclosed is a method for assembling such a transducer as well as a flowmeter including at least one such transducer.
