THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
This chapter presents the introduction and background of the study. It also
covers discussion on the study’s conceptual paradigm, the statement of the
problems, its scope and limitation, significance of the study, and the definition of
terms for better understanding of the concepts related to the study.
Introduction
Fan needs to be manually controlled every time but by using this idea the
automatic temperature detection fan. The fan will automatically turn on
depending on the temperature in the surrounding. The project is based on the
concepts of Internet of Things (IOT). Here, the temperature is to be controlled
and the focus is on the reason of installing automatic detection fan is the comfort
of the consumer. Temperature is controlled using DHT22 Sensors; the DHT22 is
a low cost digital temperature sensor. It uses an electrical phenomenon and
semi-conductor devices to live the encompassing air and spits out a digital signal
on the information pin. It is easy to use but requires more time to grab
information and then the DHT22 sensors send the data to micro-controller circuit
which consist of arduino board. Arduino refers to an open source electronics
boards and it is programmed using software. It makes electronic design more
accessible for anyone interested in creating it with suitable environment. The
study is aimed at controlling the temperature detection fan automatically using
2
arduino temperature and humidity sensors. Electric fan is one of the most
popular. Electrical devices due to its cost effectiveness and low power
consumption advantages. It is common circuit and widely used in many
applications. It also one of the most sensible solutions to offer a comfortable and
energy efficient. In fact, the fan has been long used and still available in the
market. Nowadays the demand for accurate temperature control and air
freshening control has conquered many of industrial domains such as process
heat, automotive, industrial places or office buildings where the air is cooled in
order to maintain a comfortable environment for its occupants. One of the most
important concerns involved in heat area consist in the desired temperature
achievement and consumption optimization. So an automatic temperature control
system technology is needed for the controlling purpose in the fan temperature
detection according to the temperature changes.
Background of the Study
Warm temperature is one of the common problems that are being faced
by households and commercial establishment. Many houses and apartments
cannot provide air condition for their rooms and houses. In this study we
designed a temperature detection fan that can detect warm and cold temperature
and display it on LCD (Liquid-crystal Display) display in the range of +1 degrees
Celsius to +50 degrees Celsius. The heart of the circuit is an Arduino board
which controls all its function, a NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient)
3
Thermistor is used as temperature sensor. It is also part of smart home
application where the fan will gradually increase. In general home appliance fans
need to operate manually with the help of regulators with the variation of
temperature.

Significance of the Study
Over the last decade, advances in electronics have made devices smaller,
cheaper and faster. This research study is about how the speed of a fan can be
controlled, based on temperature sensor. It is also a part of smart home
application where the fan will gradually increase its speed if the temperature is
increasing and if the temperature decreases the fan speed decreases. In
general, home appliance fans need to be operated manually with the help of
regulators with the variation of temperature, thus requires a repeatedly extra
effort for regulating the fan speed which acts to our agony. So as to reduce extra
effort and to add comfort, it is intended in this paper designing an Automated
Energy Saving Fan.
Scope and Limitations
For the scope of the study, the main intension is to control the fan by
heating the sensor, where the speed of the fan is dependent and controlled by
any device’s temperature like PC. As the temperature of the device increases or
decreases, the speed of the fan increases or decreases respectively. So, it can
be used mainly as cooling devices. By modifying the circuit slightly, it can also be
used to control the room temperature. Thus, it is possible to control the speed of
the fan automatically when the device’s temperature varies. Experiment can be
followed to evaluate whether the circuit can be save energy through the use of
temperature sensor and thus promote efficiency. The micro-controller is the heart
7
of the circuit, if micro-controller is damage the whole system will be interrupted.
Speed control is independent in individual preference.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
The literature and studies cited in this chapter tackle the different concept,
understanding, and ideas, generalization or conclusion and different
development related to study of the Automatic Temperature Detection Fan. This
serves as the researchers guide in developing the project. Those that were also
included in this chapter helps in familiarizing information that are relevant and
similar to the present study.
Foreign Literature
According to Jambotkar (2000) availability of electricity is found to reach
crucial stage. To protect and safeguard one’s future we need to save the energy.
As a slogan suggest “One unit saved is one unit generated”. The project is a
standalone automatic fan speed controller that controls the speed of an electric
fan according to our requirement. Use of embedded technology makes this
closed loop feedback control system efficient and reliable. Arduino
microcontroller allows dynamic and faster control. Liquid crystal display (LCD)
makes the system user friendly. The sensed temperature and fan speed level
values are simultaneously displayed on the LCD panel.
Dehaid (2008) constructed a smart fan in which is controlled by PIR
sensor with human tracking. The project consists of two dual element PIR
sensors directed in the same direction as the fan. The PIR sensors measure
infra-red light that is radiated in their field of view. They each contain two internal
11
compensating Pyro electric windows, one positive and the other negative, to
minimize disruption from sources. Such as temperature variation. The speed of
execution was satisfactory for the most part. Upon detection of a human the
sensing circuit responds immediately, causing the circuit output to go high. This
low to high transition is captured by the microcontroller and system operation
begins. Unfortunately, once the sensor does detect a human, its output may
remain level for as much as 2.5 seconds. The system cannot respond until the
sensor output settles since a rising edge is required to trigger a new response
from the system.
According to Farhadi (2010) the pulse width is proportional to the
amplitude of the signal. By varying the duty cycle of the pulse, the speed of the
fan can be controlled. Duty cycle may be defined as the amount of time in a
particular period during which the pulse is active or high. The speed is made
slow, medium, fast, very fast and zero by having different duty cycles.
Jamal (2015) member of International Journal of Advanced Research in
Computer Engineering & Technology (IJARCET) has been published a paper in
2015 about Smart Surveillance System Using PIR Sensor Network and GSM.
This security system is based on the embedded system along with GSM and
sensor networks. The human movement is detected using the PIR sensors. In
this time, the system triggers an alarm detecting the presence of person in a
specific interval of time and simultaneously sends the how many persons are
intruder via message to the SMS through GSM Modem. When the security
12
system is activated, the CCTV camera is activated. This highly reactive
approach has low computational requirement. Therefore it is well suited for
home surveillance system.
Suranh (2015) member of U.S. Energy Information Administration
provides data for India from 2010 to 2015. The average value for electricity
consumption of India during that period was 15.1 billion kilowatt-hours with a
minimum of 1.8 billion kilowatt-hours in 2010 and a maximum of 46.17 billion
kilowatt-hours in 2014.
Foreign studies
McKelly (2014) mentioned that some country especially in rooms
switching on or off electrical fans is still commonly made by manual switches
Hence, people are becoming so busy that they forgot to turn off switches after
leaving the room. The world temperature is increasing rapidly so a new
technology is required to adapt to this varying temperature The need for
automatic system is the concern of today’s technology.
Sinani (2011) discussed technology is running with time, it completely
occupied the life style of human beings. Even though there is such an importance
for technology in our routine life there are even people whose life styles are very
far to this well-known term technology. So it is our responsibility to design few
reliable systems which can be even efficiently used by them. Automatic Room
Temperature Controlled Fan Speed Controller is one of them.
13
Frasheri (2007) discussed as time goes by, the improvement in
technology growth larger, advance and more sophisticated. Long time ago, we
never heard about temperature monitoring system or house monitoring system
where the it can be detected by using wireless technologies application, GSM or
using radio frequency technologies is great and back to previous era, people
unable to imagine how the process work.
Frasheri (2016) discussed the same with this project that used the
application of radio frequencies by using RF transmitter and RF receiver to
monitor the temperature in the roof. The whole process that was described here
is focus only on hardware part. It was known that when the temperature outside
the house is rising, the area the sealed like in the roof will cumulate heat. So, in
order to ensure that the temperature in that area do not rise so high that will
make house resident feel not comfortable, sensor will detect the temperature and
fan will do the job in stabilized the temperature.
Hysi (2014) mentioned that the temperature that so high especially in
some country always cause discomfort for house resident. The fan that available
today for the roof is always on in order to keep roof compartment cool whether it
hot or cool. It can cause electric waste and can burden the user. This project not
only tell the value of temperature in the roof but also introduce smart fan that will
active only at certain temperature and will turn off if the temperature drop below
set temperature level.

Local literature
According to Devesfruto (2014) fan speed control considering non-ideal
temperature measurements in enterprise servers. The system was implemented
by using Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller to the operating fan
speed and eliminating fan speed oscillation caused by temperature quantization ,
and then this project I, use the Arduino UNO to save the cost and easy to
develop. The different from previous research that are design to control speed of
fan at CPU temperature and this project is to design the control speed of fan in
room temperature.
Sanchez (2013) mentioned that the project room temperature based fan
speed control system using pulse width modulation technique. This previous
project is use the temperature LM35 to detect the temperature at room. The
process to design also used the Proteus 8.0. The different with this project is the
microcontroller used the in the project, they are used the MATLAB R2013a v1.8
to authorize the accuracy of the structure and at this project used the Arduino
UNO.
Santos (2005) a principal researcher at the Davao College University,
noticed in the 2000s that the ceiling fans then had a common feature: flat blades.
Such blades clearly had the advantage of simplicity, but Santos, who had
investigated ceiling fans questioned whether the efficiency of ceiling fans could
be improved if the blades were more aerodynamic.
15
Dial (2011) covers application of a thermostatic control valve to maintain
a constant temperature of coolant flow in the cooling jacket of an internal
combustion engine. It comprises of warm up valve to suppress coolant flow in
partial area of cooling jacket, a radiator valve to supply coolant from cooling
jacket to radiator, a bypass valve to return coolant from cooling jacket’s outlet to
its inlet thus bypassing radiator. A single thermostatic element therein responds
to temperature changes and actuates warm up valve, radiator valve and bypass
valve. A solar heating system hardly requires warm up valve or bypass valve
since the system aims to deliver solar heated fluid at constant temperature or at
minimum high temperature
Mariano (2012) described a thermostatic control valve for application to
radiators used for room heating. It comprises of ambient temperature sensor in a
housing to operate a plunger to actuate control valve. The housing is isolated
thermally from the valve mechanism. Its claimed advance controlling heating fluid
flow through the radiator is that it responds to the room’s ambient temperature
rather than being affected by the heat emanating from the heat radiator. The
limitations perceived in this arrangement are the low operating range of
temperatures that are appropriate for space heating and restrictions limited to
plunger-cylinder mechanism
Local studies
Mariano (2007) described that automation systems at home today has
been developed. Automation can be generally described as a process following
16
pre-determined sequential steps with a little or without any human exertion.
Automation is provided with the use of various sensors suitable to observe the
production processes, actuators and different techniques and devices. Smart
home automations gives the owner of a home an ultimate control over his or her
home by automated lighting system, dimming, and electrical appliances. This
advanced technology is used to do automation of a house activities, so it is also
can be called as home automation.
Abad (2009) discussed that the weather changes rapidly in the world, the
temperature changes frequently. Temperature monitoring and control is
important in industrial environments and also in the human living room. Industrial
temperature monitoring is important in many applications and systems as
excessive changes in the temperature can lead to detrimental effects and failure
of operation. Many important devices and chip components, such as integrated
circuit, demand for stable temperature and voltage without instantaneous
breakdown and wide range fluctuation. Early detection of overheating and proper
handling of such situation is essential to avoid deterioration and faulty
components. Thermal management in the semiconductor electronic industry is
facing increasing challenges due to increasing power and cost effective
solutions. Due to the excessive changes of temperature human life being
harmful. In the electronics world we want to make the human life comfortable.
Therefore the home automation system is very essential. Fan speed controller is
one of the parts of the home automation system.
17
Abatat (2010) mentioned that typical ceiling fan has only a few primary
components: a motor, fan blades and, sometimes, a light. The focus of the
development was to modify the fan blades to make the fan more aerodynamic
and consequently more efficient. But it was recognized that modifications to the
fan blades may impact the design of other components, and that efficiency gains
may be attained by paying careful attention to them.
Aguilar (2010) mentioned that normal fans in household as well as offices
have a manual speed control system. It is regulated using a rotary switch which
internally involves a potentiometer. The potentiometer adjusts current flow to the
fan and hence, the speed is adjusted. This project involves the use of
temperature sensor. The temperature sensor will read through changes in room
temperature.
Dela Cruz (2011) mentioned that time goes by, the improvement in
technology growth larger, advance and more sophisticated. Long time ago, we
never heard about temperature monitoring system or house monitoring system
where the it can be detected by using wireless technologies application, GSM or
using radio frequency technologies is great and back to previous era, people
unable to imagine how the process work.
