Summary: | 碩士 === 華梵大學 === 電子工程學系碩士班 === 104 === Around HFU campus, a VW Mini Logger for water table recording is installed at outdoor wild fields, the node encountered the problems of energy for operating wireless data acquisition. We use common solar power and wind power to solve the above-described problems. When sunlight is enough, solar power can effectively provide the required power for this system. Unfortunately, solar power can’t fully powered at night and rainy day. In contrast, wind power can make up the shortage of solar power in a stable wind conditions regardless rainy or sunny. Therefore, this study combines two types of green energy to make a set of auxiliary power equipment. For wind power equipment, we adopt both small and tiny-wind turbines to reach a full wind power harvesting. Tiny-wind turbines are easy to startup at lower wind speed condition and can assist to supplement electricity when the small-wind turbines are not driven. Besides utilizing the wind power, a solar panels absorb broad wavelengths are jointed to take the solar energy.
Our wireless data acquisition system is combined with a GPRS module. The groundwater data and power consumption at each node, which are collected to ZigBee coordinator, can be further deliver to a remote storage device. Human works for collecting data are therefore can be replaced by this wireless auto data acquisition system. This research also discusses how to effectively use and improve the integration of wind and solar energy. The issue on providing sufficient electricity to wireless system operation is physically operated. Finally, ZigBee real-time data are used to monitor the power condition of sensing nodes and to update water table in a full typhoon period.
