Choose a transducer and a wedge from the catalogue, or type their dimensions. The transducer is defined by its frequency, number of elements, pitch, element width and passive width. The wedge is defined by its roof angle, length, height, width, front slope, velocity and the position of the first element (Xt along the wedge, Z above the base).
A curved bottom face lets the wedge sit on a pipe. Choose a radius that matches the outside diameter of the part.
The buttons under the wedge and transducer fields save the current definition to a .ebw (wedge) or .ebt (transducer) file, and open a saved file back into the form.
