Final project
Week 17 - APPLICATIONS AND IMPLICATIONS

Propose a final Project that integrates the range of units covered, answering:



1. What will it do?

My final project will be temperature indicator in order to have a useful product in the laboratories of the Department of Chemistry. The idea would be measure the temperature of the air of dryer dishes, the temperature chimney furnaces and the temperature chimney of the boiler, to measure the temperature of emission of gases in a range of 100 - 300° C according to environmental standards and care of filters that exist in the chimney.

2. Who's done what beforehand?

Currently there are many companies dedicated to the development of my product presented in the project end. The idea was to integrate everything I learned at Fab Academy 2016 and apply it to the needs you may have in Chemistry Laboratories.

3. What materials and components will be required?
4. Where will they come from?
5. How much will it cost?
6. What parts and systems will be made?

Drawing the board

Board design (Software Eagle)

Programming C language (IDE ARDUINO)

Board design (interface FABDUINO with LCD)

3D printed parts: the protection of the boards.

FABDUINO board.

7. What processes will be used?
8. What tasks need to be completed?

I must acquire the PT 100 temperature sensor data and calibrate it to express them in temperatures through the FABDUINO and send them to the LCD to view them.

9. What questions need to be answered?

What it would mean if you would use a thermocouple instead of a PT100?

What it would if use a SPEAKER alarm instead of an RGB LED?

What it would to use a MFD material in the outer zone of the chimney, knowing that the issue of temperature is high? What material would be advisable?

10. What is the schedule?

1 week for the preparation of FABDUINO

4 days to programing the FABDUINO

4 days to perform the calibration of sensor data.

1 día para diseñar la caja de protección.

1 day to design protective case.

1 week for testing with the product obtained in the dishes dryer, chimney furnace and chimney boiler.

11. How will it be evaluated?

To measure the air temperature dryer dishes, the temperature of the furnace chimney and boiler, to have greater control over emissions from combustion gases and prevent degradation of the filter chimneys at high temperatures.
