[Owfs-developers] Temperature Sensor Rate of Change
Hi - I'm looking to monitor the heat generated by some pyrotechnics on stage at a performance of Romeo & Juliet. There was a slight problem on opening night where the fire sprinkler over center stage went off. Too much heat generated from one of the fire effects. I was thinking of trying to use some DS18S20 sensors to monitor the temperature above the various fire effects. The sensors would be mounted to the ceiling above the various fire sources. The DS18S20 looks to have a range that'll support our needs, -55°C to +125°C. Since the sprinklers trigger at around +82°C that should work fine. But I'm concerned about being able to monitor temperature changes fast enough to provide accurate monitoring. The two aspects of that are how fast / often can I realistically expect to read the temperatures on a string of 5 to 7 sensors and how fast do the sensors themselves react to changes in temperature. Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated. Thanks! - Peter P.S.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Temperature Sensor Rate of Change
This must be the most unusual use of 1-wire to date. I think the sprinklers have a lag, (it would make sense, a real fire doesn't have fast transients) so the sensing might be fine. What will you do with the information. Also, the description from the link mentions fire performers, fireworks, etc. The sprinkler must really have put a damper on the performance.

We'd be using it to see how the temperature at the ceiling changes during the performance based on the flame effect intensity. The idea would be to see how far we can push things before we get to the point of having the sprinkler trigger again. > Also, the description from the link mentions fire performers, fireworks, etc. > The sprinkler must really have put a damper on the performance. The lighting effect of the water mist from the sprinkler being backlit by a blue light was spectacular. Most of the audience and a bunch of the crew didn't realize that this wasn't planned until we realized that it was the sprinkler that went off and that there was no water feature in the performance! A bit of pandemonium ensued while we worked to get things under control and cleaned up. But the audience was great and supportive, most stayed to see the rest of the show.

Re: [Owfs-developers] Temperature Sensor Rate of Change
As of how fast such a sensor can react, I tested today a DS18B20 dropping into a cup of just boiled water. Temperature got from room temp. to stable 90C in 10 seconds: : 23 16:19:40 23 16:19:42 23 16:19:43 47 16:19:46 69 16:19:47 80 16:19:48 83 16:19:50 86 16:19:51 88 16:19:52 89 16:19:53 90 16:19:55 90 16:19:56 90 16:19:57 : DS28B20's head was half covered with a heat shrinkable tube, to protect it's pins. I have attached an .xls with logged data and graphs I have used them in a laboratory a/c monitoring and i have experienced ripples when a/c starts 'correcting' room temperature. at http://ikaros.dmst.aueb.gr/logs/labs.html, you can see for ELOI2 the ripples (click the 'last24h' image) A/C is at the ceiling (about 4m high), sensor is near the wall, behind an office, under the A/C, half a meter above flour. In the same room, there is a rack, and i have placed a sensor at it's internal side, placed near the top server. Notice again the ripples at http://ikaros.dmst.aueb.gr/logs/racks.html. ELOI3's rack is in a 4mx3m room. >> I was thinking of trying to use some DS18S20 sensors to monitor the >> temperature above the various fire effects.
