REAL TiME FLUID MEASURING & CONTROLLING DEVICE




I have done my final year grand project with arduino . My project on real-time fluid controling and measuring devices. This was so typicall and hard but finaly i have done. Below I  uploaded all details about my projects you can try it.  ino code is also avail there flowgauge
here is full code that


/**
 * Water Flow Gauge
 *
 * Uses a hall-effect flow sensor to measure the rate of water flow and
 * output it via the serial connection once per second. The hall-effect
 * sensor connects to pin 2 and uses interrupt 0, and an LED on pin 13
 * pulses with each interrupt. Two volume counters and current flow rate
 * are also displayed on a 2-line by 16-character LCD module, and the
 * accumulated totals are stored in non-volatile memory to allow them to
 * continue incrementing after the device is reset or is power-cycled.
 *
 * Two counter-reset buttons are provided to reset the two accumulating
 * counters. This allows one counter to be left accumulating indefinitely
 * as a "total" flow volume, while the other can be reset regularly to
 * provide a counter for specific events such as having a shower, running
 * an irrigation system, or filling a washing machine.
