Acoustogalvanic Effect in Water

Journal of Contemporary Physics (Armenian Academy of Sciences) Aims and scope

Abstract

We present the results of an experimental study of the occurrence of electric current in water during interaction with acoustic waves. Besides the presence of the weak acoustoelectric effect, a new resonant acoustogalvanic phenomenon in water was also discovered. Possible reasons for the small value of the acoustoelectric current and the physical mechanism of the appearance of the acoustogalvanic effect associated with depolarization of the galvanic element of the system (electrodes–water) are discussed.
