Design of Wireless Sensor Network Nodes of Thermal Pipeline Based on Zigbee

Abstract:

To avoid the explosion of thermal pipeline and control the flow, pressure and temperature of thermal pipeline, the wireless sensor network (WSN) nodes should be designed and arranged. A new information monitoring system is developed baded on ZigBee. Based on MPLAB® ICD 2, with three sensors, using low-power PIC18F4620 controller chip and CC2420 processor integrated ZigBee technology, the WSN nodes were designed. The data collected by sensors can be sent to management center by wireless network. Manager can control the thermal flow consulting by the message from sensors and find out thermal pipeline danger in time. The system realizes real-time monitoring on the thermal pipeline. The test result showes that the perfomance of the system is stable and can reach the design requirements.
