MAISCHEN

Heat water to 64 C

40 min. at 62 C

20 min. at 72 C

5 min. at 74 C

Temperature control

THE CALCULATIONS

4186 joules for 1 Liter water to heat 1° Kelvin

1 Watt = 1 joule / second

Heater = +/- 1000W

Heat 20L water 25° = 4186 * 20 * 25 = 2093000 joules

2093000 / 1000 / 60 = 34 min.

AUTOMATIC HEATING

The materials

• Electric heating plate

• Npn temperature sensor

• Arduino

• Relay

• LCD touchscreen

ARCHITECTURE

PID

proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID controller)

NO PID

Heat only; Only On-Off switch;

Measure Delta

• Far – long bursts

• Medium – medium bursts

• Close – short bursts
