Automação de sistemas de controle de temperatura : desenvolvimento de um módulo didático para fins educacionais

Abstract

Automating temperature control in a teaching module is the aim of the project, which seeks to offer a unique educational resource to students and professionals interested in the subject. Given the prevalence of automated systems in industrial environments, the project is especially pertinent. In various fields, including mining, oil and cooking, automated temperature control plays a key role. These innovative systems produce exact temperatures, resulting in greater safety, efficiency, and product excellence in modern industry. The module developed aims to present the user with a didactic system that can be replicated in a real system. The development of educational tools is fundamental, and the didactic module proposed in this project proves its importance. By understanding these systems and their versatility in various environments and areas, students and professionals will be better equipped than before. At the end of the project, the module was a success, as it showed that communication between different types of equipment is essential, and the ability to manipulate them together should be developed within the electrical engineering course. Users will gain an understanding of automation and temperature control in heating and cooling systems through the didactic module. Theoretical concepts will be explained, followed by practical applications. As users learn, they will also experience the various levels of safety found in different sectors. In summary, the work aims to contribute to the improvement of teaching on automation and temperature control in industrial systems, providing students and professionals with challenges encountered in the job market, inducing a greater frequency of use of these systems in different industrial sectors or in everyday life.
