Abstract

Abstract: This article offers an Internet of thing (IoT) based energy management system, that provide an automation concept and completely control the consumed energy by observing the delivered power from a limited and/or unreliable power sources. An example for such sources are photovoltaic and wind renewable energy where the supplied power depends on the weather conditions which make it fluctuated and unreliable. The proposed system offers a complete solution to reduce the consumed power based on the available power with less affecting on the quality of life. This article presents a cloud computing master unit that communicates with all the building devices via WIFI network nodes. These nodes are responsible for calculating the consumed energy by each connected device and deliver this information to the cloud. The system enables the user to schedule the devices’ levels of priority in a list, priority list. The master controller unit calculates the available power based on instantaneous supplied power from the source, stored energy, weather prediction, and priority list, then make a decision to keep all the devices powered on or shut down some of them for a while according to the list.This article presents an Internet of thing (IoT) system, which offers a complete energy consumption, monitoring and control. There is a master controller which is a website built with Ajax software to communicate with all the building devices (via a wireless router) which connected to Wi-Fi nodes (ESP8266 nodes) to calculate the consumed energy from each device and compare it with the fluctuated produced energy. The system is designed to keep the consumed energy, lower than the produced energy. This can be achieved by making the user take the decision and divides the building devices into three different priorities (High, Medium and Low). The presented system follows a strategy to reduce the load according to the available power and the device priority.

能源互联网:一种离网建筑能耗管理设计

摘要：本文提供了一种基于物联网（IoT）的能源管理系统，该系统提供了一个自动化概念，并通过观察有限和/或不可靠电源的输送功率来完全控制消耗的能源。这种能源的一个例子是光伏和风能可再生能源，其中提供的电力取决于天气条件，这使其波动和不可靠。所提出的系统提供了一个完整的解决方案，以在对生活质量影响较小的情况下，基于可用功率来减少消耗功率。本文介绍了一个通过WIFI网络节点与所有建筑设备通信的云计算主单元。这些节点负责计算每个连接设备消耗的能量，并将这些信息传递给云。该系统允许用户在列表、优先级列表中安排设备的优先级。主控制器单元基于来自源的瞬时供应功率、存储的能量、天气预测和优先级列表来计算可用功率，然后根据该列表做出保持所有设备通电或关闭其中一些设备一段时间的决定。本文介绍了一个物联网（IoT）系统，它提供了一个完整的能源消耗、监测和控制。有一个主控制器，它是一个使用Ajax软件构建的网站，用于与连接到Wi-Fi节点（ESP8266节点）的所有建筑设备通信（通过无线路由器），以计算每个设备的消耗能量，并将其与波动的产生能量进行比较。该系统旨在保持消耗的能量低于产生的能量。这可以通过让用户做出决定并将建筑设备划分为三个不同的优先级（高、中和低）来实现。所提出的系统遵循根据可用功率和设备优先级来降低负载的策略。本作品根据知识共享署名非商业NoDerivatives 4.0国际许可证获得许可。

期刊介绍： International Journal of Automation and Smart Technology (AUSMT) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal devoted to publishing research papers in the fields of automation and smart technology. Currently, the journal is abstracted in Scopus, INSPEC and DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals). The research areas of the journal include but are not limited to the fields of mechatronics, automation, ambient Intelligence, sensor networks, human-computer interfaces, and robotics. These technologies should be developed with the major purpose to increase the quality of life as well as to work towards environmental, economic and social sustainability for future generations. AUSMT endeavors to provide a worldwide forum for the dynamic exchange of ideas and findings from research of different disciplines from around the world. Also, AUSMT actively seeks to encourage interaction and cooperation between academia and industry along the fields of automation and smart technology. For the aforementioned purposes, AUSMT maps out 5 areas of interests. Each of them represents a pillar for better future life: - Intelligent Automation Technology. - Ambient Intelligence, Context Awareness, and Sensor Networks. - Human-Computer Interface. - Optomechatronic Modules and Systems. - Robotics, Intelligent Devices and Systems.
