A Study of Wireless Monitoring early Warning Technology of Goaf Temperature Field

With regard to goafs where spontaneous combustion of coal is very likely to occur, wireless monitoring and early warning techniques in temperature field of goaf are raised. Wireless monitoring and early warning system in temperature field of goaf based on wireless sensor network is researched and developed. Comprehensive detection, identification and early warning in temperature field of goaf are realized. Key parameters of node deployment of wireless temperature sensor in goaf are figured out and the layout schemes are optimized. According to monitored temperature information, severity of coal spontaneous combustion in goaf is figured out; therefore, early warning methods at the position of fire source are determined. Results of industrial tests on site show that monitoring data acquisition, communication are of good timeliness and reliability, operation of the entire system is stable and key functions and technical specifications can meet the need of early identification and warning of coal spontaneous combustion.
