Abstract:
A high temperature corrosion sensor is provided having (i) a housing having an external wall and an internal wall, the internal wall of the housing forming a chamber of the housing, (ii) a stainless steel tube inserted into the chamber, (iii) a ceramic tube wherein at least a portion of the ceramic tube is inserted into the stainless steel tube, (iv) an airflow tube that extends through the chamber, and (v) a sensor probe having a first working electrode, a second working electrode, a reference electrode, a positive electrical resistance, a negative electrical resistance, and a thermocouple, wherein at least a portion of each are encapsulated into a ceramic casting that is located at one end of the housing. Methods of measuring corrosion within a power plant environment are provided.
