A Novel Approach with Hybrid Technique for Monitoring and Leakage Detection of Water Pipeline Using IoT

A smart water pipeline monitoring system is discussed in this work to control water leakages. Water usage is increasing in daily life, which is related to the increase in water waste. As a result, a smart monitoring system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) has been devised and presented as a solution. IoT’s applications and benefits are limitless in today's world. A wide range of sensors for measuring water flow is available in the market. The flow of water is monitored using a flow sensor in the pipe, and the impurity present in water is detected by a turbidity sensor. The NodeMCU microcontroller, which is one of the most widely used microcontrollers for IoT applications, was employed in this system. The data from the turbidity and water flow sensors are transferred to the cloud server. ThingSpeak cloud server is open and free to use, it was chosen to store the data in the cloud. The data obtained from the flow sensor are shown in the ThingSpeak cloud. As a result, it will be very easy to monitor the water flow in the pipeline.
