This invention relates to a fossil-fired thermal system such as a power plant or steam generator, and, more particularly, to a method for rapid detection of tube failures without direct instrumentation, thereby preventing serious damage to heat exchangers. This method is applicable to Input/Loss methods of monitoring fossil-fired thermal systems.
