This paper describes the principle of humidity sensor using high frequency resistance method for Hopper-Scale that is used in RPC(Rice processing Complex) which is spreaded out in domestic, and we also understand the principle and specificity of controller and humidity sensor. After artworking the humidity sensor and controller circuit, we measure the humidity of the designed system. In this progress, we suggested substitute parts which are easy to get in domestic and also we could propose correct method of humidity detection.

Temperature and humidity are the most important factors and should be effectively controlled for the cold storage of graius. Fuzzy logic can be easily implemented to the MIMO(Multi-Input Multi-Output) control systems. For the cold storage in grain bin, fuzzy logic was applied to an air conditioning system. The capacities of the grain bin and the air conditioner are 80 tons and 30㎾, respectively. Also, the target values of temperature and relative humidity in outlet duct of the air conditioner were 8$\^{C}$ and 75%, respectively. In order to control temperature and relative humidity of air, a damper in inlet duct was manipulated for temperature control and a heater was used for humidity control. Temperature deviation and change of temperature deviation were used as input parameters for the fuzzy system. Humidity was only considered as a load. The experimental results showed that the controlled temperature of exhausted air was maintained at 8$\pm$2$\^{C}$. Relative humidity of the air was also controlled at the target relative humidity of 50∼80%.

Temperature and humidity regulations of an open-cathode PEM fuel cell with balance of plant (BOP) are developed in this study. The axial fan, a bubble humidifier, set of solenoid valves and a controller are used to perform temperature and humidity control simultaneously. A fuzzy controller is designed, and it shows its superiority in real-time controlling for strong non-linear dynamical fuel cell system. The axial fan speed is used for temperature control and solenoid valve on/off signal of the bubble humidifier is used for humidity control. The axial fan speed is controlled to keep the fuel cell temperature within the desired point. Meanwhile, the bubble humidifier is utilized to moisture hydrogen to manage the water content of membrane. The results show that the proposed fuzzy controller effectively increases the output power of 10% for a PEM fuel cell.

This study was conducted to analyze the variations of air temperature, relative humidity and pressure in a low pressure chamber for plant growth. The low pressure chamber was composed of an acrylic cylinder, a stainless plate, a mass flow controller, an elastomer pressure controller, a read-out-box, a vacuum pump, and sensors of air temperature, relative humidity, and pressure. The pressure leakage in the low pressure chamber was greatly affected by the material and connection method of tubes. The leakage rate in the low pressure chamber with the welding of the stainless tubes and a plate decreased by $0.21kPa{\cdot}h^{-1}$, whereas the leakage in the low pressure chamber with teflon tube and rubber O-ring was given by $1.03kPa{\cdot}h^{-1}$. Pressure in the low pressure chamber was sensitively fluctuated by the air temperature inside the chamber. An elastomer pressure controller was installed to keep the pressure in the low pressure chamber at a setting value. However, inside relative humidity at dark period increased to saturation level.. Two levels (25 and 50kPa) of pressure and two levels (500 and 1,000sccm) of mass flow rate were provided to investigate the effect of low pressure and mass flow rate on relative humidity inside the chamber. It was concluded that low setting value of pressure and high mass flow rate of mixed gas were the effective methods to control the pressure and to suppress the excessive rise of relative humidity inside the chamber.

Modbus는 각종 자동화 장비 감시 및 제어에 전 세계적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 자발적 산업표준 통신 프로토콜이다. 그러므로 선박, 빌딩, 기차, 비행기 등 Modbus를 이용하는 모든 장비들과 연결이 가능하여 환경변수의 측정 및 원격제어가 가능하게 된다. 기존의 Modbus는 Serial 통신을 기반으로 사용되어 왔으며, Modbus TCP는 오늘날 인터넷 프로토콜로 가장 많이 쓰이는 TCP/IP를 기반인 Ethernet 통신을 이용하므로 Serial 통신에 비해 빠르고 사물인터넷(Internet of Things) 환경에 연결이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 Modbus TCP 통신 프로토콜을 이용하여 무선 Wi-Fi 환경에서 LED 조명을 제어하기 위한 알고리즘을 설계하고, 선박의 통합관리 시스템에서 외부 환경요인 확인 및 원격제어가 가능한 LED 제어기 회로를 설계 및 구현 하였다. 외부 환경요소인 온도, 습도, 전류, 조도 값들은 센서를 통해 제어기로 받아들이며 이 값들은 Modbus 프로토콜을 통해 선박의 통합관리 시스템에 알리게 된다.

A Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system is a nonlinear multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system. This system is very difficult to control the temperature and the humidity ratio of a thermal space because of complex nonlinear characteristics. This paper proposes an adaptive fuzzy output feedback control based on observer for the nonlinear HVAC system. The nonlinear HVAC system is linearized through dynamic extension. State observers are designed for estimating state variables of the HVAC system. Fuzzy systems are employed to approximate uncertain nonlinear functions of the HVAC system with unavailable state variables. The obtained controller compares with an adaptive feedback controller. Simulation is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed adaptive fuzzy method.

A practical application of a fuzzy-neuro controller is described for an air-conditioning system. Air-handing units are being widely used for improving the performance of central air-conditioning systems. The fuzzy-neuro control system has two controlled variables, temperature and humidity and three control elements, cooling, heating, and humidification. In order to achieve high efficiency and economical contorl, especially in large offices and industrial buildings, two controllable parameters, temperature and humidity, must be adequately controlled by the three final controlling elements. In this paper a fuzzy-neuro control system is described for controlling air-conditioning systems efficiently and economically. Simulation results confirmed that the fuzzy neuro control system is effective for this multivariable system.

The aim of this study was to develop a phytotron for studying the effects of environmental factors such as temperature and humidity on plant growth. This equipment consists of the growth chamber, and the measurement and control system including control algorithms required for optimum operation. As the first step of the study, a temperature and humidity control system was developed. The results of this study are summarized as follows ; 1. Pt-100 was selected to measure temperature and a linearized op-amp circuit was developed for signal conditioning. 2. Pt-100 wet bulb thermometer based on Asmann's principle was developed to measure relative humidity. 3. Temperature and relative humidity conditions were controlled by ON-OFF and PWM operation using a PID controller. And an autotuning algorithm using the characteristics of step response was developed to determine optimal PID constants which were independent of the size of apparatus and environmental factors. 4. Under the ambient temperature of $20^{\circ}C{\sim}25^{\circ}C$, the temperature was kept within the error of ${\pm}0.3^{\circ}C$ in the range of $10^{\circ}C{\sim}40^{\circ}C$, and the relative humidity was kept within the error of ${\pm}5%$ in the range of ${\pm}50%{\sim}90%$.
