A description is given of a transducer which utilizes, for the transformation of sonic to electrical energy, the electrokinetic potential developed by the movement of a fluid through a porous solid. The construction and calibration of the transducer are discussed, and results of measurements of the pressure fluctuations in oil pipe lines are presented.
