Abstract

Water supply is a crucial for human lives, not only for daily activities but also for secondary purposes such as for watering garden, paddy fields etc. There are many efforts of human in fulfilling their water supply needs. Most of water supply is provided by using electric motor pumps which in certain cases might increase the financial cost. In this paper, wind energy is applied to pumping water mechanically whilst it combines with solar panel which works to pump water during less wind speed condition. The micro-controller Arduino-Uno is employed to manage the collaboration operation between wind and solar panel. The design concept and construction are presented and discussed. The operation results exhibit good operation performance and could be developed for the real application.

Highlights

  • Water is the main requirement of agricultural activities

  • The solar panel functions to convert solar energy into electrical energy which is stored in the battery to run the control system

  • Based on the data obtained from testing the tool, the conclusions obtained are: 1. The water supply control device has been successfully made by utilizing wind turbines and Solar Panels

Summary

Introduction

Not all regions have adequate reserves or sources of clean water, many rice fields and plantations are highly dependent on rainwater (rice fields and rain fed gardens), if there is a dry season, the production process can decrease and harm farmers and disrupt government supplies. The control system is a system consisting of one or more equipment that functions to control other systems related to a process. With the development of science and technology, the control system in the industrial world is growing. This allows control of a process can be done automatically. One of the most widely used tools to control processes automatically is a microcontroller [2]
