ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for measuring decreasing thickness of the refractory lining of a high pressure, high temperature, water cooled reactor wall, such as a high pressure gasifier, during aggressive corrosion attack using a pulse-echo ultrasonic probe inserted in the wall, which will corrode at approximately the same rate as the wall of the reactor.
