LOW COST FUZZY SYSTEM APPLIED TO THE CONTROL AND SUPERVISION OF THERMAL ENVIRONMENT IN POULTRY FARMS

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to develop an automated fuzzy controller with microcontroller, consisting of hardware and software for the control and supervision of thermal environment in broiler farms. The study has been conducted in two steps: in the first one it was performed a computer analysis through simulation. In the second step it was performed the evaluation of the software and hardware developed by the equipment test in the registration of the thermal environment variables within the facility and activation of the climate control equipment. The experiment was conducted in a poul...
