System software for checking motor temperature and for giving appropriate sound indication

manojroy123

Flowchart for detecting motor temperature and giving sound indiction.

image

In the above flowchart you can see how the system software works. First it checks for motor temperature and gives proper indication about it. Bellow is the working video of the system.

Arduino code

First we read sensor value from ADC.

 // Read sensor value
         int newValue = analogRead(A1);

Than we filter those value using median filter. Median Filter function code is given bellow. There were many software filter available like SMA(Simple mean average), LMA(Logarithmic mean average), median filter. SMA was still giving lots of error, so we have used median filter for processing sensor data. it was still giving some error. We are looking for more better software filter for processing sensor values.

/*Median Filter */
// Median filter function
int median(int *array, int size) {
  int sorted[size];
  // Copy array
  for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
    sorted[i] = array[i];
  }

  // Simple bubble sort
  for (int i = 0; i < size - 1; i++) {
    for (int j = 0; j < size - i - 1; j++) {
      if (sorted[j] > sorted[j + 1]) {
        int temp = sorted[j];
        sorted[j] = sorted[j + 1];
        sorted[j + 1] = temp;
      }
    }
  }
  

After filtering the Raw ADC sensor data using median filter. We convert the filtered value to voltage. Code for which is given bellow.

 int rawValue = filteredValue;
  float voltage = rawValue * 0.00323 ;  // Convert to voltage
  const float Rref = 992.0; //1K ohm referance resistor
 
  // Calculate sensor resistance from voltage divider formula
  float Rt =  Rref*( voltage / (3.307 - voltage));

After converting to voltage. We convert the voltage value to temperature using "Invert Callendar-Van Dusen" technique which has some constant in it. bellow is the code for it.

// Callendar-Van Dusen coefficients for standard PT1000 (α = 0.00385)
const float A = 3.9083e-3;
const float B = -5.775e-7; 
const float R0 = 1000.0;  // PT1000 resistance at 0°C

//Function for voltage to temperature convertion
float calculateTemperature(float Rt) {
  float temp = -A + sqrt(A * A - 4 * B * (1 - Rt / R0));
  temp = temp / (2 * B);
  return temp;
}

After doing all the required processes we simply print this value in serial terminal and give appropriate buzzer indication based on algorithm shown in flowchart. bellow is the code for it.

// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
    digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);
       delay(10);
      /*Median Filter Local Varibales*/
      // Read sensor value
         int newValue = analogRead(A1);
         int filteredValue;
      // Store new value in buffer
          readings[index1] = newValue;
          index1 = (index1 + 1) % windowSize;

      // Check if buffer is full
          if (index1 == 0) bufferFilled = true;


      // Apply median filter only when buffer is filled
  if (bufferFilled) {
    filteredValue = median(readings, windowSize);
    Serial.print("Raw: ");
    Serial.print(newValue);
    Serial.print("  Filtered: ");
    Serial.println(filteredValue);
  } else {
    Serial.print("Raw: ");
    Serial.print(newValue);
    Serial.println("  (Warming up)");
  }
         
       //Serial Read Write
     
       int rawValue = filteredValue;
  float voltage = rawValue * 0.00323 ;  // Convert to voltage
  const float Rref = 992.0; //1K ohm referance resistor
  float Res = (Rref*voltage)/(3.3-voltage);
 



// Calculate sensor resistance from voltage divider formula
  float Rt =  Rref*( voltage / (3.307 - voltage));

  // Invert Callendar-Van Dusen to get temperature (for T ≥ 0°C)
  float temp = calculateTemperature(Rt-20.0);

  Serial.print("Raw ADC Value: ");
  Serial.print(rawValue);
  Serial.print(" => Voltage: ");
  Serial.print(voltage, 3);  // 3 decimal places
  Serial.println(" V");
  Serial.println(" Resistance");
  Serial.println(Rt-20.0);
  Serial.println(" Temperature");
  Serial.println(temp);

//Buzzer program
  if(Rt > 1174 and Rt < 1194){
        digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);   // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
         delay(100);                       // wait for a 100 milisecond
           for(int a = 0; a<5; a++){
                            digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);    // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
                            delay(100);
                            digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);   // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
                            delay(100);  
                            }
        }
   else if(Rt >= 1194){
                         digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);   // turn the LED off (Low is the voltage level)
                         delay(1000);      
                      }
    

}

    Your code does not do that: if(Rt > 1174 and Rt < 1194){ // ... 48, 49 } else if(Rt > 1194){ // 51, 52... } 50° is unsafe according to your comment above (it's above 45°, but not above 50°). But…

    Does anyone knows any better software filter for sensor. Median filter still picks noise and displays it. But the probability of it is very low. lower than simple mean average filter. Any suggestions would be appriciated.

    I have told you, in another thread, that you can't decide on  a better filter without looking at the noise signals you want to get rid of and comparing them with the signal you want to keep.

    From what you have revealed in this post (but wouldn't say in the earlier one) I suspect that you are hoping to use a digital filter to fix your noise problem but this is almost certainly a mistake.

    Is the noise you are seeing worse than you would expect from you measurements of the noise on the ADC reference ?

    How many ADC counts is the noise ?

    I am still not sure what median function returns.

    It's the combination of the 3 code snippets:

    but no return value spotted :)

    digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);   // turn the LED off (HIGH is the voltage level)

    The comment is still different than the code
