The Microcontroller-Based Main Engine Cooling Water Temperature Control System

With the highly speedy development of computer technology, measurement apparatus, and control technology, more and more advanced technology, equipments and methods for measurement and control are applied in modern automation control realm. In these numerous advanced measurement and control technology, because of the enhanced performance and reduced price of single chip microcomputer, making the advantage that its ratio of performance to price been obvious. Therefore, how to apply the single chip microcomputer to ship automation control realm, it becomes the one of questions for discussion in ship engine automation, more and more scientific research organization attach importance to it.This work of this monograph adapts to the development tendency, applying the single chip microcomputer to cooling water temperature automation control system of ship main engine. First of all, the monograph analyzes the function demand of all modules of the control system, specifies the technique request, it provides a solid foundation for the subsequent system design; then, confirms the choice of the hardware parts and the software arithmetic according to the system function; finally, this monograph provides a whole plan about hardware and software design for the all main engine cooling water temperature control system that based on single chip microcomputer. At the same time, discusses about hardware and software design methods for improving the reliability of the control system, these methods perfect the whole system design.According to the research of this monograph, we successfully introduce the single chip microcomputer to ship engine automation control realm, it enriches the automation control technology and explore an effective way for ship engine automation. It has a wide development space.
