Abstract
This chapter presents the case study of temperature control project. The aim is to explain the designing of a complete temperature control system from the first principles. The design of a microcontroller based control system is described from modeling to the control of the process. An electrical water heater is considered as the example process. . An electric heater is used to heat-up the temperature of water in a tank and the aim is to keep the temperature at the desired value. This chapter also explains the design of a small temperature control system. In industrial applications, there are usually large temperature control systems with multiple sensors and high-power heating elements. Design of industrial temperature control systems requires the analysis of both the heating and the cooling behavior of the plant. The control of such systems is usually a complex task and requires considerable experience, both in electronic engineering and in control engineering. Safety and reliable operation of such plants are also very important factors that must be considered during the design phase.
