IOT BASED VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE

Abstract

A IOT (Internet of Things) Based Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is a type of motor controller which drives an electric motor by differing the frequency and voltage of it’s power supply using the designed or created application or .gui file for the Variable Frequency Drive. Firstly we have to create a Variable Frequency Drive’s PCB layout using Eagle/Proteus. We have to create a VFD’s circuit layout on bread board to test and then finalise the layout that can further be used for finalisation of the PCB which is going to be prepared for final submission.We have to create a Graphical User Interface (.gui) for the mobile application and write a program/code in Java and .Xml on ANDROID STUDIO. We have to connect the proposed or prepared VFD PCB with the mobile application to test weather it is working properly or not.we can convert the single phase induction motor to three phase induction motor by increasing the motors efficiency and by adding some more tests and simulation that are done on the modified variable frequency drive with improved efficiency. After testing and simulation of the proposed work I come to a point that we can add on some more things to the related work. We can add on IOT on the work which is done with the help of which we can operate the VFD with the dedicated software which is specially designed for the operation control. We can change the RPM (rotation per minute) of the motor on the work which is done with the help of the application which is designed for this and by this we can take more advantages of the proposed work by doing more things without disturbing its main work.
