Abstract

The IoT-based Running Hour Tracker System for Small Combustion Engines offers an efficient and economical solution for recording operating hours and performance data. This system features a power circuit with a power bank, an ESP32 microcontroller, various sensors, an IoT module, and an LCD, creating a versatile device easily mounted on small combustion engines. An Android-based application developed using the Blynk platform enhances user interaction, while IoT connectivity allows real-time monitoring, remote accessibility, and data analysis. The system provides timely alerts for maintenance activities such as changing oil and replacing spark plugs or air filters based on engine running hours, promoting effective maintenance routines and preventing costly over-maintenance and major breakdowns due to under-maintenance. Additionally, it supports environmental sustainability by ensuring engines run efficiently and are properly maintained. The device's compact design makes it easy to install on a variety of engine models, enhancing its applicability. Furthermore, the system can log and store historical data, allowing users to analyze engine performance trends over time. This project not only ensures optimal engine performance and minimal downtime but also paves the way for smarter, data-driven maintenance practices. By integrating hardware and software components into an economical package, the system holds significant potential for future enhancements and broader applications.
