Acoustic wave propagation in a fluid with a random assortment of identical cylindrical scatterers is considered. While the leading order correction to the effective wavenumber of the coherent wave is well established at dilute areal density ($n_0 $) of scatterers, in this paper the higher order dependence of the coherent wavenumber on $n_0$ is developed in several directions. Starting from the quasi-crystalline approximation (QCA) a consistent method is described for continuing the Linton and Martin formula, which is second order in $n_0$, to higher orders. Explicit formulas are provided for corrections to the effective wavenumber up to O$(n_0^4)$. Then, using the QCA theory as a basis, generalized self consistent schemes are developed and compared with self consistent schemes using other dynamic effective medium theories. It is shown that the Linton and Martin formula provides a closed self-consistent scheme, unlike some other approaches.
