After the gas enters the pipeline, it deposits at the wall surface position of the pipeline. After measuring the thickness of the test piece 103 for the first time before cleaning, the measuring device 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application is installed at the pipeline connection, and then the pipeline is cleaned by using plasma gas or other cleaning media. After cleaning, the thickness of the test piece 103 is measured for the second time. By comparing the change in the thickness of the test piece 103 before and after cleaning, the cleaning efficiency of the pipe wall can be detected. If the cleaning is not in place, cleaning can be continued.
