Implementación de un prototipo de un sistema de alerta por fuga de gas glp en residencias.

Abstract

The objective of this project is to explain the process that was carried out for the development of the LPG gas detector system prototype, focusing on generating an alert when the emission levels exceed the value that was calculated based on parameters such as: the Superior Calorific Power (PCS) and the flammability limit of each gas that makes up LPG, specifically butane and propane.

For the development of the same one an investigation was made referring to the contexts and operations of each element as much of software as of hardware. Then we proceeded to carry out each proposed objective based on:

- The analysis of accidents caused by LPG gas leakage, which was done through an interview with the Fire Department of the Metropolitan District of Quito for the collection of information.

- The design of the prototype made in Proteus software with the help of the PCB Layout tool and the implementation of this on an electronic board.

- Finally, functional tests are performed to verify that when there is a leak of LPG gas, the prototype gas detector system alerts them. Likewise, it allows the verification of the emission states by means of an application developed which is synchronized with the system.

The implementation of the project will generate an impact in low-income sectors, which can be used as a means of alert if there is a gas leak and thus safeguard the lives of people.
