Description

Simulates 20 ModBus Sensors (10 Outdoor and 10 Indoor Temperature Sensors), 10 ModBus Actuators (Heaters) and 10 ModBus Controllers (Thermostats, clients of one sensor and actuator each), controlling Heater output, based on Sensor output. Outdoor Sensor Temperature Value varies randomly over time. Indoor Sensor Temperature Value varies depending on Outdoor Temperature and Heater output, using a simplified heat transfer function. Controllers read sensor data and control Heater output based on current Indoor Temperature, comparing it to a goal Temperature that can be configured. Model is simplified, heat transfer made quicker, to illustrate communicative aspects, rather than physical properties. All devices can be interacted with using external clients, such as the Simple IoT Client or Tag ID App.
