Design and development of water flow network using IoT

Abstract

During the past decades water needs have risen exponentially to an unprecedent-ed scale in India. Due to increase in population, water consumption and water distribution has become critical problem. To triumph over problems related to water supply and for equal distribution of water there is a need for efficient automated device. This paper pro-poses the conceptual design of automated water flow network and distribution system using IoT for highly populated urban areas such as apartments. The system is fully automated with closed loop structure. The heart of proposed design has a microcontroller which ex-tracts and processes the data from electronic flow rate sensors and monitors the flow of wa-ter to each user based on predetermined threshold level. Hence the water is equally distrib-uted among the user according to their needs. IoT provides the information services required for water flow networks.
