solar energy, flat-plate solar collector, Mojo v3 platform, controller.Abstract
The paper discusses the development of an automated controller for a Mojo v3-based solar heating system. The developed system operates using 6 sensors (DS18B20 Dallas) expanding the platform's applicability. An integrated system allows controlling temperature and heat using Dallas sensors. The control and monitoring system is implemented in the VHDL and VERILOG languages. A control algorithm has been developed that activates libraries and constants, a real-time clock module, temperature sensors, and server connection. When the server connection is established, the temperature sensor readings are recorded and saved in the XML file in the Ethernet module. XML facilitates data processing by automatically or manually interpreting spreadsheet programs.
