The objective of this research paper is to design and implement wireless sensor networks (WSN) for various monitoring & control applications in industry. In today’s competitive market the industries are facing growing demands to improve process efficiencies to comply with environmental regulations and meet corporate financial objectives. Therefore, the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) for industri...

Pressure regulators are the most important components of gas distribution networks. Operational optimization and failure-mode analyses of these networks require simple and reliable models for pressure regulators. Using dynamic operational data, a novel approach to model a pressure regulator is presented. A pressure regulator is modelled as a virtual feedback control system, with a control valve...

With the growing need for decarbonization, future gas demand will decrease and necessity of a distribution network is at stake. A remaining industrial on level could lead to industry becoming main consumer supplied by network, leading question: can keep alive? To answer this research question, three-stage analysis was conducted, starting from rough estimate average per production site then incr...

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) networks are commonly deployed to aid the operation of large industrial facilities, such as water treatment and distribution facilities, and electricity and gas providers. Historically, SCADA networks were composed by special-purpose embedded devices communicating through proprietary protocols. However, three main trends can be observed in modern...

physical and chemical properties of  crude oil, including viscosity and api gravity, are commonly inherited  from the  early organic matter, environmental conditions in which they were deposited and depth of burial of the source beds. api gravity increases in deeper burial due to higher thermal maturation of organic matter in the source rocks and consequently, generation of lighter saturated hy...

microgrids are small-scale, low voltage (lv) power networks which employ renewable distribution energy resources (ders) with power electronic interfaces (peis). microgrids as single controlled units and active distribution networks require flexible control systems to ensure reliable and secure operation in different modes. these various operations of microgrid cause variations in voltage and fr...

Due to the resource constraints on sensor networks, many recent key management schemes exploit the location of nodes in order to establish pairwise keys. Despite these efforts, location discovery for sensor networks is very difficult, because existing schemes have failed to consider changes in the signal range and the deployment error. As a result, network performance may accidentally decrease,...
