The river basin in a county of Huizhou, Guangdong, serves as a critical waterway for the region. Accurate hydrological flow monitoring is essential for flood prevention, water resource management, and ecological protection. In recent years, significant changes in hydrological conditions due to climate change and human activities have heightened the urgency for enhanced flow monitoring.
The project utilizes array radar wave flow measurement systems developed by Shenzhen Huaju Scientific Instruments Co., Ltd. Key components include:
Radar Flow Meters: Connected to multiple radar velocity sensors via RS485 bus.
Data Acquisition Terminal (RTU): Interfaces with radar flow meters through RS485 and communicates wirelessly with a remote monitoring platform for automated data collection and transmission.
Based on the river cross-section characteristics, elevation distribution, and flow patterns, the monitoring area is divided into several measurement zones. Each zone is equipped with a radar velocity sensor to measure local flow velocity. The radar flow meter can be deployed in any zone.
Non-Contact Measurement: Radar technology measures water surface velocity without physical contact.
Integrated Algorithm: Combines velocity and water level data to calculate real-time cross-sectional flow and cumulative flow.
High Reliability: Unaffected by temperature, sediment, or pollutants, ensuring consistent performance with minimal maintenance.
Real-Time Monitoring: Provides continuous and accurate flow data.
Non-Contact Technology: Eliminates interference with water flow and reduces maintenance needs.
Robust Performance: Operates reliably under varying environmental conditions.
Remote Data Transmission: Enables seamless integration with monitoring platforms for timely decision-making.
