ABSTRACT:
A pipe section through which a liquid passes includes a transmitting and receiving transducer diametrically opposed on the surface of the pipe and arranged to project acoustic energy through the interior of the pipe whereby the output signal from the receiving transducer changes in the presence of a liquid in the acoustic path between the transducers. V-shaped grooves or other surface modifications are made to the surface of the pipe circumferentially between the transducers so as to redirect wall-borne acoustic energy to a more axial direction thus preventing its reception at the receiving transducer.
