Controlling and Monitoring Air Speed in a Wind Tunnel

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Engineering - Computer Engineering, , course: Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Mechatronics, language: English, abstract: The project proposes a construction of a wind tunnel controlled and monitored by a system containing a Web Based monitoring interfaced to a Programmable Logic Control network that carries out an application program which receives inputs from an anemometer sensor for measuring the airspeed performed by the fan and from a User Computer, which chooses airspeed values to be implemented by the Brushless fan. Both inputs are compared by the PID controller, control mode used by the PLC system, and the output is generated with base on the inputs received by the PID controller.
This system after set properly, is able to measure airspeed value provided by the Brushless fan in real time, transferring it to the PLC via internet where it is displayed in a Web page developed for this system.
