Abstract:
1. An ultrasound-based measuring device, comprising: a measurement body defining an end face; at least one ultrasonic transmitter configured to couple ultrasonic measurement signals into the measurement body, wherein the at least one ultrasonic transmitter is configured to emit both a longitudinal measurement signal and a transverse measurement signal; at least one ultrasonic receiver configured to detect the ultrasonic measurement signals reflected at the end face of the measurement body; and an evaluation unit which, on the basis of the propagation times and a difference between the propagation times of the longitudinal and transverse measurement signals reflected at the end face, takes account of the influence of a physical disturbance variable on the measurement section traversed by the measurement signals during the determination of a measurement pressure prevailing at the end face and/or a measurement temperature prevailing at the end face.
