Description
Technical field of invention:
The present invention relates to the field of civil engineering and more specifically to an internet of things based civil engineering water pump with embedded solar system.
Background of the present invention
The background information herein below relates to the present disclosure but is not necessarily prior art.
Sustainability of current and future water resource allocation is a growing concern to the public. Finding a balance between what is needed by humans and what is needed in the environment is an important step in the sustainability of water resources. In addition, water usage and water properties have a significant impact on costs incurred by residential consumers and businesses. As a result new management strategies are needed.
Some businesses and consumers attempt to implement water-efficiency best management practices to help understand and better manage their water use. Actively monitoring water use and effectively educating individuals about facility water use and water management planning goals are key components of properly managing and reducing commercial facility and residential water use. Monitoring and education set the stage for the relative success of a water management program, providing the ability to track and measure progress to increase awareness and build support for specific projects or user behavior changes.
Various attempts have been made to accomplish these goals through various devices, but each suffers from various drawbacks. For example, some existing commercial systems used to monitor or control water usage involve a complex network of water lines, cords, and cables that require a skilled technician to install, maintain, and in some instances use. As a result, such systems are often not properly used or effectively used and are not widely adopted.
Other examples include large industrial devices designed for use by municipal utilities. Unfortunately, such devices cannot measure water at the fixture level (e.g., at the faucet), and due to large size are not versatile or useable by commercial and residential water users.
Smaller examples of water flow monitoring devices include devices which include a display directly on the device attached to the water line, requiring the individual user to obtain data from the display and manually record the data for further use. Alternative examples include devices that are attachable in limited locations, such as to a shower, and only provide an estimate of the volume of water. Unfortunately, these systems have limited accuracy and are not user friendly.
Thus, what is needed is a smart water management system which is small and versatile so as to permit management of water consumption at the fixture level, but also capable of being scaled to commercial uses. Therefore to overcome the drawbacks of the existing systems the present invention provides an internet of things based civil engineering water pump with embedded solar system.
Objective of the invention:
The primary object of the present invention is to provide an internet of things based civil engineering water pump with embedded solar system.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved water management system which will easily manage the water requirements for crops for different types of crops required time to time.
Summary of the invention
Accordingly the present invention provides an internet of things based civil engineering water pump with embedded solar system. The proposed system provides a water pump with grid connected intelligent solar system for water management. The water pump has two output valves, one for storage tank and second for direct use with solar panels. Sensors and IOT system for checking the water levels of tank and underground water and water quality. Micro-Controller for operation of pump automatically based on data feed for different types of crops and requirements of water at different period of time. Water tank with pH value indictor with water quality sensor and timer, alarm buzz at given set time or the sensor give the signal for water requirement. The water pump will be operated automatically with the help of sensors and IOT system for checking the water levels of tank and underground water and water quality.
Detailed description of invention
The present invention relates to an internet of things based civil engineering water pump with embedded solar system for water management and monitoring a consumer requirements.
The proposed invention comprises two water pump, one sensor to measure temperature and humidity of surrounding area and an IOT system for checking the water levels of tank and underground water and water quality having wireless unit configured with the sensor units to transmit the detected data to a remotely placed server unit via a communication network.
In the proposed invention, the water pump will be operated automatically with the help of sensors and IOT system for checking the water levels of tank and underground water and water quality. IOT system, the water pump can be controlled from remote location also. On the basis of water in storage tank and availability of electrical power, the water pump is switched ON by solar power first and if no solar power, then grid power. When tank was full or no water is needed, the pump is switch OFF.
Herein the user has to first sign-in in the system. Here, water tank is used for storing water and second tank for storing chemicals. The water tank is connected to chemical tank, so the chemical can be mixed with water for removing the impurities. The water pump has two output valves, one for storage tank and second for direct use. The water pump will be operated automatically with the help of sensors and IOT system for checking the water levels of tank and underground water and water quality. Also the system can have water quality sensor and timer. When the alarm buzz at given set time or the sensor give the signal for water requirement, the system first check whether electric supply is available from solar system or not. If solar electric supply is available, then water pump automatically switched ON. And if solar electric supply is not available, then system automatically switch to grid 6 supply and motor switched ON till the water requirement is complete. The water quality is improved based on the sensor input and user requirements. With the help of IOT system, the water pump can be controlled from remote location also. On the basis of water in storage tank and availability of electrical power, the water pump is switched ON by solar power first and if no solar power, then grid power. When tank was full or no water is needed, the pump is switch OFF. The water in tank is used, when no electricity is available for long duration. The IOT monitoring system will display the water requirement, water level in tank, chemical level in second tank, availability of grid electrical supply, availability and level of solar power, quality of water etc.
In an embodiment, the water motor via control unit automatically or manually supplies water to the consumer on receiving a wireless command from the local computing device or remote computing device.
In an embodiment, the water level sensor in server unit further detects a water level in water tank and commands the water motor via control unit to supply water to fill the tank. Based on the input from user that where water will be used, the chemicals are added in water to improve the water quality based on water quality sensor. Thus, the proposed system enables the consumer to determine the quantity and quality of water being required.
The many features and advantages of the invention are apparent from the detailed specification, and thus, it is intended by the appended claims to cover all such features and advantages of the invention which fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and variations will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation illustrated and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
