| Popis: | Wireless sensors are becoming very popular in industrial processes for measurement and control, condition monitoring, predictive maintenance, and management of operational transients and accidents. In the last five years, many sensor manufacturers have teamed up with companies who make wireless transmitters, receivers, and network equipment to provide industrial facilities with integrated networks of wireless sensors that can be used to measure process temperature, pressure, vibration, humidity, and other parameters to improve process safety and efficiency, increase output, and optimize maintenance activities. Historically, the nuclear industry has been slower than others in implementing new technologies—wireless technologies are no exception. This is of course justified, as nuclear research and power reactors must perform a more thorough “due diligence” than other industries before they can adopt a new technology because of the increased safety and licensing requirements.This paper reports on a r... |
