Wireless infrastructure in a district heating substation
Jan van Deventer, Jonas Gustafsson, Jerker Delsing, Jens Eliasson · 2009
A new wireless sensor and actuator network architecture for a district heating substation is presented. The implementation allows for new control algorithms to save substantial amounts of energy and therefore reduce waste and indirectly CO2emissions. The wireless network uses TCP/IP all the way to the sensor level, which can enable a standardized service oriented architecture and the possibility to upgrade software of each node remotely over the Internet. New diagnostic services are also available to improve service and maintenance.
