The Calibration Method of Thermal Heat Flux Sensor Based on Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

This paper analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of existing heat flux sensor calibration methods, proposed a calibration method of thermal heat flux sensor based on wireless sensor networks. Experimental results showed that the detection error was reduced from 6% to 2% after calibration. The proposed method has many advantages, such as short calibration time, accurate results, easy installation as well as batching calibration. In a word, this method is available to calibrate heat flux sensors and will have an important significance for accurate measurement of heat flux.
