Paper Abstract
An enhanced signal processing method based on the filtered Hilbert envelope of the auto-correlation function of the
wave signal has been developed to monitor the height of condensed water through the steel wall of steam pipes with
dynamic surface conditions. The developed signal processing algorithm can also be used to estimate the thickness of the
pipe to determine the cut-off frequency for the low pass filter frequency of the Hilbert Envelope. Testing and analysis
results by using the developed technique for dynamic surface conditions are presented. A multiple array of transducers
setup and methodology are proposed for both the pulse-echo and pitch-catch signals to monitor the fluctuation of the
water height due to disturbance, water flow, and other anomaly conditions.
