How to Monitor Flow Rate using Microcontroller
@cchandansjce • 14 Apr, 2012
Hi Ceans ,
Can anybody give me the microcontroller code to monitor flow rate and volume of the liquid ??

Hi Ceans ,

Which Microcontroller you are using? And sensor to measure flow? Have you tried to write code by yourself?
@cchandansjce • 16 Apr, 2012 we are using ATMEGA 32 microcontroller and for volume we are using load cell and for flow we got a flow sensor . I tried writing code in ATMEGA 32 but still not able to do that . So need help sir ...

Okey. I can help to write code instead of giving you code.
Please post link for both Sensors.

@Harshad Italiya • 17 Apr, 2012 Load cell gives you change in analog signal and you have to use ADC for measurement. Now can you tell me whats the output of this flow sensor. I am not able to understand that part only.
@cchandansjce • 17 Apr, 2012 the output of flow sensor will be analog voltage . Its a magnetic flow meter in which voltage will be generated corresponding to the rotation of the wheel inside the flow sensor.

Is it Pulse generated or Variation in Voltage(Analog Signal) ?
@cchandansjce • 18 Apr, 2012 analog signal
@Harshad Italiya • 18 Apr, 2012
cchandansjce
analog signal
Ok. So Now You have to measure both analog signals and according to that reading you can calculate Flow rate.
Have you tried to write ADC Measurement Code?
@Harshad Italiya • 18 Apr, 2012 Which IDE you are using for writing code AVRStudio?
Here is one Example for ATMEGA interface with ADC :- Click Here
@cchandansjce • 19 Apr, 2012 Thought about that .... But how to write that sir ?? Is that similar to C code or different for ATMEGA32 ??
@cchandansjce • 19 Apr, 2012 IDE is khazama AVR programmer
@Harshad Italiya • 22 Apr, 2012 C is common for all the microcontroller as IDE compiler converts it to assembly so you can go with the same code. You have to check the code after loading into controller this is not exact code you want.
