| Summary: | In this paper, the development of a water bath control
system in a virtual laboratory environment is discussed. The
system proposed is developed using LABVIEW 8.6. This project
consists of three stages. The first stage is hardware development,
which involves construction of interface circuit to allow
communication between plant and computer. The second stage is
to build the Fuzzy Logic Controller using LABVIEW software,
where fuzzy set and rule base are applied. The final stage is to
publish the GUI module onto the web for real-time remote
control. An internet based GUI module environment of a water
bath temperature control system has successfully been developed
using LABVIEW software and published onto the web where it
can be fully controlled using Fuzzy Logic Controller developed,
and monitored by any user despite of their geographical
locations, as long as they have computers with web browsers and
internet connection. Thus, this will assure a better and easier
understanding of certain subjects, especially control system. With
such a facility, laboratory resources can be shared online,
laboratory experiments can be carried out away from the site as
well as outside the official working hour, and the control subject
can be taught in a more meaningful and effective manner to the
students. |
