Continuous Boiler Efficiency Measurement - COD-WASP system

COD-WASP(CW)系统是一种经济高效、智能的一氧化碳(CO)检测(COD)系统，可远程监测家用锅炉烟道中的CO水平和其他参数，作为锅炉效率的指标。该设备使房主能够进行必要的服务访问，认识到代价高昂的低效率，减少他们的碳足迹，进行更健康的锅炉维护，并提高家庭安全。该系统使用能量收集技术，通过简单、坚固、无线的自主传感器平台(WASP)系统利用烟道中的温差自我供电，使连续、实时的锅炉效率监测和分析成为可能。开发的WASP系统将能够容纳其他类型的传感器单元，以及基于传感器模块的新应用。目前，还不存在这样的集成技术。我们的创新英国智能“市场证明”研究强调了终端用户和国内锅炉供应商对低成本设备的潜在需求。经验丰富的管理和咨询团队将与知名承包商一起开发“Beta”原型，降低业务风险，并在15个月内在GB 140,051预算内实现项目目标。

The COD-WASP (CW) system is a cost effective, smart carbon monoxide (CO) detection(COD) system that remotely monitors the CO levels and other parameters in flues of domesticboilers as an indicator of boiler efficiency. The device empowers homeowners to cutunnecessary service visits, recognise costly inefficiencies, reduce their carbon footprint,practice healthier boiler maintenance and improve home safety.The system uses energy harvesting technology to self-power itself using temperaturedifferences in the flue via the simple, robust, wireless autonomous sensor platform (WASP)system that makes continuous, real time boiler efficiency monitoring and profiling possible.The developed WASP system will be able to accommodate other types of sensor units as wellcreating new applications based on the sensor module.Presently, no such integrated technology exists. Our Innovate UK SMART “Proof of Market”study highlighted potential demand for a low cost device by the end users and domestic boilersuppliers.The experienced management and advisory team together with established contractors willdevelop a "Beta" prototype, de-risk the business and deliver the Project objectives within the£140,051 budget in 15 months.
