Abstract
The device for monitoring internal pipe deposit accumulation is a capacitance-based sensor for monitoring changes in thickness of deposits accumulating on an internal surface of a pipe. The device includes a pipe segment having opposed first and second open ends with at least one valve releasably sealing at least one of the first and second open ends. A first electrode, in the form of an electrically conductive cylindrical shell, is mounted on and surrounds a portion of an external surface of the pipe segment. A second electrode, in the form of an electrically conductive rod, is mounted coaxially within an interior of the pipe segment. An electrical power source is electrically connected across the first and second electrodes to form a cylindrical capacitor and changes in capacitance of the cylindrical capacitor are monitored by a controller.
