EXAMINING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK IN UNDERWATER NETWORK PIPELINE MANAGEMENT

A sensor network framework for pipeline device monitoring is described in this paper. Petroleum, natural gas, water, and sewage are both distributed and transported through pipeline systems. Leaks and ruptures caused by an ageing and rapidly deteriorating pipeline system infrastructure cost millions of dollars per year, and they highlight the need for ongoing, automated inspection systems that can track and alert of defects like corrosion and leaks until they become major disasters. In this article, we look at how sensor networks can be used to track, localise, and measure pipeline spikes, spills, and other abnormalities. Lamb waves are ultrasonic waves that may travel long distances in plates when directed. A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a distributed network of autonomous devices that use sensors to sense physical or environmental factors. WSNs collect data on temperature, sound, pollution levels, humidity, wind speed and direction, noise, and other environmental variables. Wireless sensor networks were invented for military purposes such as frontline surveillance and are now used in a range of industrial and consumer applications, including industrial process tracking and regulation, machine health monitoring, and so on. The usage of wireless sensor networks in the monitoring of water pipes is discussed in this article. Controlling the structural integrity of water treatment plants is a significant undertaking. They're made up of a huge underwater network of pipelines that's still inaccessible. It is important to maintain these networks in proper working order in order to ensure that the general public has access to clean drinking water. This paper describes the design, development, and testing of a smart wireless sensor network for leak detection in water pipelines, with a focus on the calculation of relative indirect pressure changes in pipes. Pressure fluctuations caused by leakage can be detected by the sensors. These pressure profiles may also be used to locate leaks. These abilities are important for reducing the time it takes to identify and repair defects, as well as the impact on water sources. The evolved monitoring device has significant advantages over widely utilised telemetry devices, such as low expense, great versatility, low power at high duty cycles, scalability, and so on.
