Design and realization of distributed intelligent monitoring systems using power plant

Abstract

In order to guarantee the smooth progress of the work in power plant, the production equipment and tools should be real-time monitored. The traditional artificial and statistical management methods have been unable to adapt to the present needs, therefore this paper presents a new distributed intelligent monitoring system based on the technology of intelligent terminal equipment and Ethernet communication. The system could realize real-time functions, such as the monitoring of equipment and tools, data statistics, system control and system alarm. Wherein, the communication between the different monitoring modules is completed used RS485 bus, and the communication between the monitoring module and control module is completed through Ethernet. Experimental results show that the system could run stably and real-time monitor the dynamic changes in power plant, and has good application prospect. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
