NOTIS - Basic Theory: Basic Types of Scales

The document describes the NOTIS ultrasonic scale thickness measurement technique. It has a resolution of 1 mil and accuracy of +/- 2 mils. NOTIS can determine multi-layered scale structures by distinguishing between oxide, steam interface, oxygen-rich, and iron-rich scale layers. It diagnoses exfoliation by comparing scale thickness measurements between adjacent tubes.
