Thermodynamics and Intelligent Control of a Harvesting Water System

Abstract

This article deals with modeling and control of an autonomous device for harvesting potable water,leading to performance improvement. The technique of agricultural greenhouse phenomenon is essentially used to determine a thermodynamic model of the harvesting water system, that is simple and realistic to design the behavior of the whole water-climatic harvest. The obtained model will be applied to develop an intelligent controller based on fuzzy logic concepts, presenting a power ful mean to optimise and facilate the climatic mangement of the device. To simulate the proposed harvest water system, climatic data of a humid and arid region us Gabes city are opted for the optimisation of state variablles favorable to condensation.
