Abstract

An electric kettle normally intended to boil water and for the most part does not give temperature display and temperature control capability. Inspired from this constraint, a circuit of temperature control device for electric kettle and a controller that able to regulate water temperature at the desired level will be developed in this project. The main circuit is developed by utilizing Arduino microcontroller. A step down transformer and rectifier circuit is utilized to control up the microcontroller circuit. Solid state relay will be utilized for interfacing between 240V power supply to electric kettle. For controller design, bang-bang control system is chosen since it is easy to design and robust to disturbance and parameter uncertainties. The effectiveness of the designed circuit and controller is assessed through Online Arduino Simulator. The hardware prototype model is created to realize the designed circuit and controller, which is also equipped with temperature adjust and temperature display. The developed temperature control device is tested by interfacing with a few electric kettle to verify the efficiency. In the end of this project, a device that gives basic user interface of controlling water temperature inside electric kettle is successfully delivered.
