Development of LPG Leakage Simulation System Integrated with the Internet of Things (IoT)

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is highly inflammable and can burn even at some distance from the source of leakage. One of the preventive actions to avoid the danger associated with gas leakage is to install a gas leakage detector at suitable locations. The purpose of this paper is to execute the simulation environment of the LPG leakage detection system. This system consists of an Arduino Uno microcontroller, LPG leakage sensor MQ-2 and ESP8266 WiFi Module. The Wi-Fi module will send the warning message notification through a user’s smartphone with the help of Blynk application interfacing software. The simulation system is successfully detecting the LPG leakage and can alert users within a short time.
