Abstract: One periodically determines the frequency of the vibrating element for which the absorbed power through the ultrasonic device is at a minimum and for which its efficiency is maximum. One compares this frequency to a previously measured frequency and modifies of one step of a given amplitude the working frequency of the ultrasonic device after a given number of comparisons having for result a frequency difference greater than a pre-established value have been detected.
