| Summary: | This project proposed a development of temperature changing measuring system for water quality index in UMP Lake, Pekan Campus. Temperature is one of nine critical water qualities and environmental parameter because it governs the kinds and types of aquatic life, regulates the maximum dissolved oxygen. With respect to chemical and biological reactions, when the water temperature is increased, the rate of chemical and metabolic reactions will also increase. This project will use Graphic User Interface (GUI) of Visual Basic, the software will be the data storage which save all the data measured by the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor will send a feedback through ZigBee Compatible Wireless device. The current technology in adopting wireless terminal technology for instrumentation directly leads to efficient process. In a warm water streams, the temperatures should not exceed 89 degrees Fahrenheit. Cold water streams should not exceed 68 degrees Fahrenheit. The expected result is the sensor will monitor the temperature in UMP Lake and send the data to the software. If the sensor detect the water temperatures exceed 89 degrees Fahrenheit, or 68 degrees Fahrenheit in cold water stream, it will send a warning signal to the computer through the wireless device. |
