Abstract:The acoustic beacon is mainly assembled by using screw thread couplings between caps and shell. The products are always affected by heavy loads when operating under high water pressure. In this paper, to investigate the influence of screw thread couplings on acoustic beacon strength under deep water condition, the structural stresses and the distributions of the acoustic beacon with different pre-tightening torque of screw thread under particular water pressure is analysed by using finite element method.
