| dc.description.abstract | This thesis presents a Tank Volume Monitoring System aimed at addressing the challenges of manually measuring liquid levels in storage tanks, which is often inaccurate, time-consuming, and hazardous. The research explores the design and implementation of a real-time monitoring system using sensors, microcontrollers, and IoT technology. Related works are reviewed, highlighting various methodologies and technologies used in previous liquid measurement systems. The problem statement focuses on the need for an automated, reliable, and accurate solution to monitor liquid levels and volumes, especially in industrial settings where manual methods pose safety risks and inefficiencies. The methodology encompasses the development of a liquid monitoring device utilizing a NodeMCU ESP32 microcontroller, MaxSonar-EZ4 ultrasonic sensor, and a 16x2 LCD display. The project involves hardware assembly, software integration, and real-world testing on different container sizes to ensure accuracy and reliability. Results indicate that the system successfully measures and calculates liquid levels and volumes, displaying data on an LCD screen and transmitting it to a smartphone via the Blynk app for remote monitoring. The findings demonstrate the system's potential in providing real-time, accurate liquid monitoring, significantly improving efficiency and safety in managing liquid storage. Future recommendations include enhancing sensor sensitivity and integrating advanced signal processing techniques to further improve the system's performance. | |
