Abstract

In the present era automation is a popular technique which is seen almost everywhere starting from industrial application to consumer application. This project describes how the DC motor speed is automatically controlled through temperature variation. The use of DC motors were mostly found in AC machines, small cooling fans, rob arms and also in simple toy cars. However in this project,it makes use of the LabVIEW platform which is made to be interfaced with the DC motor. The interfacing circuit is done on a Arduino prototype board which is supported by the LabVIEW platform. Since the speed of the motor is controlled through temperature variation, temperature measurement circuit is also interfaced through LABVIEW. The temperature sensor used in this project is LM35. Both temperature measurement and the interfacing of the DC motor is done through LABVIEW software loaded into Arduino board. All the signal communication between LABVIEW and the circuits which are interfaced on the Arduino prototype board is possible through the LabVIEW Makerhub. Initially the speed of the motor is set to a particular speed which is related to a particular temperature. The change in temperature is compared with the set temperature. With respect to the change in the variation in temperature the dc motor speed can either be increased/decreased using the LABVIEW program.
