SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING AND DIAGNOSIS OF HEAT EXCHANGER TUBE HEALTH
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING AND DIAGNOSIS OF HEAT EXCHANGER TUBE HEALTH
A system and method for monitoring heat exchanger tube health without requiring the heat exchanger system to be shut down and disassembled and without operator intervention. At least one wireless sensor ball (WSB) assembly is positioned in the heat exchanger system. The heat exchanger system includes an ultrasonic acoustic receiver array mounted therewithin. WSB assembly information is gathered regarding status, operating condition, health, efficiency of the piping system, and/or, piping system health trends.
