Abstract
To solve the problems of traditional wiring monitoring methods, such as difficulty in wiring, high temperature, and premature aging of the lines, the development status and trend of ZigBee technology were analyzed. A ZigBee-based online gas leakage monitoring system for power plant boilers was designed to avoid gas leakage in these boilers. ZigBee short-range wireless communication technology was used instead of the wired method to complete online monitoring of power plant boilers. Results showed that the system timely monitored the gas leakage and revealed the operating status of the power plant boiler in real time. In addition, the next moment of gas leakage was predicted, which ensured the safe and stable operation of the power plant boiler. In summary, gray system theory provides powerful theoretical support for the leakage status assessment and gas leakage prediction of the boiler. The proposed system ensures the safe, stable, and efficient operation of the power plant boiler.

Summary
The widespread promotion of the global energy internet has gradually increased the demand for electrical energy. Companies need to provide a variety of supplies to meet people’s living needs. The leakage of power plant boilers accounts for a large proportion of all boiler accidents. A serious leak prevents the normal operation of a power plant boiler. Such accident affects the economics of the power plant and pollutes the environment. The leakage status of power plant boilers should be monitored. On February 3, 2013, a boiler explosion occurred in Cixi, Ningbo. Most of the three-story buildings on the site collapsed, thereby causing iJOE ‒ Vol 14, No 8, 2018
