Napájanie IoT senzorov z tepelného gradientu pôda–vzduch

Abstract

This diploma thesis focuses on the design and implementation of an experimental device for generating a thermal gradient between soil and air. Within the scope of the work, a soil temperature control system was designed and implemented, including a control algorithm and integration of measurement components. The solution also includes control of an external climate chamber that ensures the required air temperature conditions within a climatic container. The proposed device was successfully realized, installed, and experimentally tested. The results confirmed the correct functionality of the system and its ability to generate a thermal gradient. The developed solution is suitable for experimental purposes and further research in the field of energy harvesting from thermal gradients.
