Computer implemented method for determining boundary thermal resistance data (Rbl) of a boundary layer (15), comprising the following steps: obtaining first temperature data (T1) from a first temperature sensor (13), which is arranged at a first pipe section (S1); obtaining second temperature data (T2) from a second temperature sensor (14), which is arranged at a second pipe section (S2); wherein the first temperature sensor (13) and the second temperature sensor (14) are non-invasive temperature sensors; providing process condition data (P); determining boundary thermal resistance data (Rbl) of a boundary layer (15) of the fluid (11) next to an inner surface (16) of the wall of the pipe (12) based on the process condition data (P) and/or based on the first temperature data (T1) and/or the second temperature data (T2).
