Research and Application of Factory Hydroponic Technology in Wheatgrass Greenhouse

Conversion of farmland to forest is one of the important policies of China’s western development strategy, which is of great significance to the protection of ecological environment in western China. In the context of this era, the traditional grazing-based breeding method that the western region has long adhered to needs to be replaced by the factory-based house feeding with large-scale construction of forage bases. On the basis of a self-developed multi-layer three-dimensional intelligent environmental control system, this study comprehensively optimized the temperature and humidity control system, automatic micro-spraying system, intelligent ventilation system and automatic light filling system, so as to develop an efficient wheat hydroponic planting system. Based on the above planting system, it only takes 7 days from sowing to harvesting. The roots, stems and leaves of wheat grains are all fodder, and 7 kilo-grams of green forage grass can be produced by per kilogram of wheat. In addition, through hydroponic transformation of wheat, protein starch, which is difficult or inefficient to be absorbed in the form of wheat seed, can be transformed into easily absorbed amino acids and glucose. Meanwhile, the vitamin content of green feed is significantly increased, which is of great significance to improve the feed biological conversion rate.

Effective Control of Road Luminaires—A Case Study on an Example of a Selected City in Poland

According to various estimates, street lighting in Poland consumes between 1.500 and 2.500 GWh per year and is responsible for some greenhouse gas emissions from electricity generation. Also on the basis of estimates, it is estimated that approximately 3.3 million road and street luminaires are used in Poland. The increase in electricity costs, on the one hand, and the technical possibilities in the field of lighting, on the other, force the search for new solutions aimed at saving during the operation of electrical devices and installations, including road lighting installations. One of the methods of saving electricity is to replace the luminaires with energy-saving ones with LED sources, but also with new sodium and metal halide sources. The latter solution is cheaper and allows us to keep existing poles, electrical installation and luminaire heads if their technical parameters have not been degraded. The new and already used luminaires with discharge sources can be used in road lighting, provided that they meet the requirements of Polish law and the EU regulations. Like luminaires with LED sources, they can have an adjustable value of the emitted luminous flux, which allows us to save electricity. One of the methods of saving electricity in road installations is their effective lighting control. Such control can take place at very different levels, from the manual setting of the required light intensity using dimmers to full automation taking into account other factors influencing the operation of the road lighting system, e.g., time of day, intensity of external light, presence of road users, weather conditions and others. The article describes both of the above-mentioned methods, describing their advantages and disadvantages on the basis of actual measurements of working road installations, and analyzes the annual operation of a modernized road lighting installation with automatic lighting control in one of the selected cities in Poland.

Tunnel means tubular passage cut through the hill or underground, these tunnels remain in dark always and inside the tunnels proper lighting system are essential to avoid the accidents. In this regard our government is arranging lights and they are glowing continuously irrespective of traffic and lot of energy is wasted. To avoid energy losses at these places, this efficient and intelligent lighting scheme is developed, which works automatically depending up on the road traffic and minimizes the energy consumption. In addition, all the vehicles release the waste (exhaust) gases that may be stagnated in the tunnel, due to lack of circulation with the outside environment. So, a gas detector/sensor is used for sensing these exhaust gases released from the automobiles and pump them outside the tunnel through an exhaust fan automatically. The process begins from the sensors; optical sensors are used for sensing the vehicles and depending up on the traffic density, inside lights of tunnel are controlled automatically. For example, many vehicles entered in to the tunnel from both the sides, all the lights are energized and as the traffic moving forward depending up on the clearance, required lights are energized, during the clearance means no vehicle is inside, all the lights remain in off condition automatically. The system is designed with Microcontroller, four sets of Infra Red sensors are used and they can be arranged either side of the tunnel in by directional mode. All the sensors are interfaced with Microcontroller and the program is prepared such that, depending up on the interrupted signals obtained from the sensors. The sensor used in the project work can detect all types of petroleum gases; in addition, it can detect smoke also. The sensor interfaced with the controller can energize exhaust fan automatically when it detects any type of gas or smoke.

Saving energy by maximising daylight and minimising the impact on occupants: An automatic lighting system approach

Electric lighting energy expenses has gained importance in the last decades representing a large part of the global energy expense worldwide. The increase of the proportion of glazed building facades is an incomplete solution raising other problems regarding thermal and visual comfort, while rebound effects in terms of lighting usage lowered the energetic benefits of LED technology. Another strategy to address the issue of energy is the well-known strategy of the re-introduction of task lights. The current study presents a system arbitrating the contribution of daylight with general and task electric lighting from the prediction of key performance indicators (work plane illuminance and daylight glare probability) by a machine learning model. It aims at reducing energy consumption while minimizing the impact on occupants’ comfort and productivity. This system was validated by the mean of a controlled user experiment with 60 participants. Altogether, our data revealed that RADIANCE simulations model accurately predicts on-site monitoring (R2=.96) and that the machine learning model accurately predicts RADIANCE simulations for both work plane illuminance (R2=.99) and daylight glare probability (R2=.99) allowing to operate the automated system. Data from the user experiment shows that our system successfully saves 35 Wh on average compared to manual operation of the room by users, by making prior use of daylight and task lighting. This represents more than halving the energy demand. Importantly, the automation impacted neither users’ comfort or task performance. System acceptance constructs such as system reliability or trust in the system were found to be linked with an attribution of the locus of control to powerful others. This result suggests that the key towards high user acceptance might lie in purposefully addressing this dimension. Altogether, the presented results support the potential for energy saving through the development of user-centred lighting automation.

Development of Learning Media Simulation of Automatic Garden Lights Using the Proteus Application

With so many garden lights, gardeners often struggle to turn on or turn on garden lights manually, this study aims to make it easier for park officers or gardeners to turn on or turn off garden lights practically. Automatic garden light is a lighting system that runs automatically, this system can use light sensors such as LDR (Light Dependent Resistor), photodiode and others. However, this circuit system can also use a timer that has been set in time when the circuit or garden lights will turn on and off, this can happen because there is an automatic switch circuit that utilizes the characteristics of one of the light sensors, namely the LDR sensor whose resistance value can change according to Light intensity. During the day, the resistance value of the LDR will be very high and even reach its maximum value of 10k , this makes the current flowing to the base of the transistor very small, to activate the transistor 2N3055 a minimum voltage of 0.9V is needed to the base of the transistor. Because the resistance of the LDR is very large, the voltage that enters the base of the transistor will be very small or even non-existent so that the transistor is like an open switch and does not flow current. One type of automatic switch that is widely used today is a light switch with a light sensor, where the switch will turn off and on automatically because it is affected by the intensity of the light around it. For example, at night, we don't need to press the switch to turn on the lights, because the lights will turn on automatically. The results of this study indicate that the simulation experiment of garden lights using the Proteus application went well, the use of simulation using Proteus also aims to make it easier for us to understand an electronic component and how it works.
