This paper presents the simulative studies on the use of ultrasonic sensors for steel pipe investigation. Using the acoustic impedance, calculations are done to estimate the propagated ultrasound signal based on its reflection and transmission percentage. The ultrasound wave propagation simulations are then further studied using a modeling software to simulate and visualize the wave interactions between different boundaries. Experiments done with real hardware have shown correlation with the numerical and simulation studies.Â
