Abstract:This study presents the ongoing research conducted in the field of thermal systems which are commonly used in agriculture and also in other fields to utilize the solar thermal energy. This paper describes a small-scale physical system that is controlled by hardware-inthe-loop (HIL) method. The solar thermal input is realized by a heating element, which can provide a 60 W power in total. The input energy is controllable via Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to mimic the stochastic changes in weather. The heat storag… Show more
