Research and Analysis of a Smart System for Intelligent Control of PCM Water Storage Tank for Stock Farm Needs
Authors: , , ,
Abstract: Energy efficiency is a very important component in modern systems. Modern research examines innovative methods and techniques for increasing the efficiency of heat generation systems. A popular approach is to apply combined methods of using energy from different heat sources. This article describes а basic algorithm for developing an intelligent control for a system of hot-water storage tanks with PCM adapted for a stock farm's needs. The main components of the system are described along with the PCM advantages. The prerequisites for the system’s operation are analyzed and adapted for its management. The developed algorithm and a control system are tested in a simulated environment and are presented conclusions of the system’s energy efficiency improvement.
