Solar Panel Dust Monitoring System

Abstract

The current residential solar panels lack an adequate monitoring system, which hinders their optimal utilization. This research aims to design an Internet of Things (IoT) monitoring system and employ machine learning techniques to predict the current and voltage generated by solar panels. Experimental studies have revealed a correlation between dust accumulation and the current output of solar panels. The proposed system facilitates the prediction of the optimal time for cleaning solar panels.

Objective

ประเทศไทยนั้นเป็นประเทศในเขตร้อนที่เหมาะสมต่อการติดตั้งโซลาร์เซลล์เป็นอย่างมาก แต่เนื่องด้วยปริมาณฝุ่นเพิ่มขึ้นในทุกๆ ปี ซึ่งปริมาณฝุ่นนี้มีผลกระทบต่อแผงโซลาร์เซลล์ จึงมีแนวคิดในการพัฒนาระบบติดตามดูแลแผงสำหรับครัวเรือน ที่โดยส่วนใหญ่ไม่ได้มีการดูแลอย่างเหมาะสม

Design Electric Tuk-Tuk for the Development of New Automotive Technology

This project aims to design and develop an electric tuk-tuk by converting the traditional combustion engine system to an electric system, supporting the reduction of air pollution and promoting sustainable automotive technology. The electric tuk-tuk is designed using a BLDC electric motor and a control system specifically adapted for the unique driving style of three-wheeled vehicles in Thailand. The study considers suitable energy systems and includes interviews with traditional tuk-tuk drivers to ensure the vehicle meets everyday usability needs. The findings suggest that adopting electric tuk-tuks not only reduces emissions and PM2.5 particulate matter but also enhances an eco-friendly image for Thailand’s tourism sector while supporting domestic innovation and economic growth.
