Sistema electrónico de monitoreo del consumo de agua potable mediante arquitectura IoT y comunicación MQTT en una vivienda del sector San Vicente de Picaihua Cantón Ambato

Abstract

ABSTRACT In the present research project is analized the excessive consumption of drinking water, focussing on showing in an appropriately way the information and generate a hardware tool and a free software to facilitate the monitoring of this resource from the company in charge of its distribution. In the process is applied the general features of the Internet of things ( abreviated “IOT”, as will be used from now on ). In a system directly oriented to the measurement of variables linked to a domótica environment. On that basis, the research is directed to develop an electronic system of drinking water consumption monitoring. The design system is based on a flow sensor which determinate the drinking water flow in a residential place along the daily routine. Taking as a basis the value the meter show at the start of the day. The daily consumption gets determinated by using a low-cost control ( Single Board Compute abreviated SBC, from now on ). The data acquisition gets done with the sensor and the control actions get executed in a solenoid valve that controls the flow of the drinking water in the home.After that, an access point is stabilized under a bydirectional communication protocol (Message Queue Telemetry Transport) for sending and receiving data. These data will be managed by a server. In addition, this server is in charge of the provision of results through a web page, showing details as the total consume, date, hour, user name, meter code, etc.
