Microcontroller Based Fan Speed Control System

Abstract

Design and implementation of Microcontroller based automatic Fan speed regulator using temperature sensor is represented here. Most of the available Fans today are controlled manually by voltage regulators which have different stages of speed. During summer nights, especially the room temperature is initially quite high, as time passes, the temperature starts dropping. Also, after a person falls asleep, the metabolic rate of one’s body decreases, and one is expected to wake up from time to time to adjust the speed of the Fan. Many people who are disabled / physically challenged persons are affected the most because of the inconveniences associated in changing the Fan speed level manually when the room temperature changes. So, an efficient automatic Fan speed control system that automatically changes the speed level according to the change in environment / room temperature which is more comfortable than manual system. This project has been designed in such a way that the required components are available in local market. Therefore an indigenous low cost control scheme has been developed which can be used in real life application.
