Description
Summary:This paper presents a wireless detection system for explosive atmospheres in underground coal mines based on the following methods: triangle Coward and diagram Bureau of Mines, as an alternative solution to the problem that exist in the highly explosive atmospheres in mines. Mathematical analysis and the measurement of the concentrations of the combustion gases in the atmosphere is performed by wireless data adquisition system based on ZigBee, and treated by a programming environment LabVIEW through a SCADA module.
