Arduino Arduino is a prototype platform (open-source) based on an easy-to-use hardware and software. It consists of a circuit board, which can be programmed (referred to as a microcontroller) and ready-made software called Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment), which is used to write and upload the computer code to the physical board.  Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on 8-bit ATmega328P microcontroller. Along with ATmega328P, it consists other components such as crystal oscillator, serial communication, voltage regulator, etc. to support the microcontroller. Arduino Uno has 14 digital input/output pins (out of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog input pins, a USB connection, A Power barrel jack, an ICSP header and a reset button. The key features are Arduino boards are able to read analog or digital input signals from different sensors and turn it into an output such as activating a motor, turning LED on/off, connect to the cloud and many other ac

    Difference between HCV and LCV     HCV LCV Also known as higher heating value (HHV) or gross calorific value Also known as lower heating value (LHV) or net calorific value Byproducts are allowed to condense Byproducts are allowed to escape Amount of heat evolved when a unit weight (or volume in the case of gaseous fuels) of the fuel is completely burnt and the products of combustion cooled to the normal conditions (with water vapor condened as a result). Amount of heat evolved when a unit weight (or volume in the case of gaseous fuels) of the fuel is completely burnt and water vapor leaves with the combustion products without being condensed. Total energy released when products have cooled down to the room temperature and water has been condensed out. Energy released when products are hot. Some of the heat or energy in byproducts can be recovered through condensation. Heat or e
