Zusammenfassung:A probe may be configured to be inserted into the bore of a heat exchanger tube and pushed through the length of said tube. The probe may include at least one sensor configured to at least one of detect and quantify internal fouling in said tube without being influenced by the presence of external fouling. The at least sensor may be configured to be in signal communication with a processor and a graphical user interface. Inspection methods and computer-readable media also are disclosed.
