Abstract:

In order to monitor the overall fuel consumption of ocean vessel in real time, a fuel consumption monitoring system was designed, which was based on flow collection, RTU remote transmission terminal and GPRS DTU technology. Firstly, the system was installed in the fuel filler to carry out measurement and monitoring, and ZigBee wireless communication technology was used to complete the wireless short distance transmission of data in realtime. Then RTU terminal was applied to collect and process data, and to control the output. Finally GPRS DTU module was employed to convey small amount of data to the shorebased platform in realtime. The practical application indicates that the system not only ensures the accuracy and realtime of fuel consumption information, but also can reduce the cost.

Key words: turbine flow meter, RTU remote control terminal, GPRS DTU module, ZigBee wireless network
