ACKNO\VLEDGEMENT
I thank God Almighty whose infinite grace led me throughout the project. Also thank
Him for giving me the ability to overcome the ups and downs of running a successful degree
program.
I would like to appreciate the invaluable contribution of my honorable supervisor Mr:
Paul Attah and the co assessor Mallam K. Mohammed for their supervision.
I also appreciate the effort of my lovely parents Mr and Mrs Nnam for their constant
help, prayers, financial and moral support, and their words of encouragement and advice. My lovely
siblings, joy, Gloria, Sammy, Excel and Peace, I acknowledge your efforts on me.
r also appreciate Mr. Obinna Emmanuel Okeke for his effort, support (morally and
spiritually), prayers and all his advice.
A well deserving appreciation goes to all my esteemed friends and colleagues;

ABSTRACT
This project presents the design, construction and control of the speed of an
electric fan based on the ambient temperature. This fan system consists of temperature ..
sensor, analogue to digital converter, microcontrolIer, liquid crystal display (LCD)
with integration of software programming using A T89s52 as the microcontroller. The
electric fan automatically switches the speed according to the ambient temperature
changes using the temperature sensor LM35. lfthe temperature is between (18-25) °c,
it gives a logic high signal at the outputl.i.e. Relay l.if the temperature is between
(26-32) °c, it gives a logic high signal at the output 2.i.e.Relay 2. lfthe temperature is
between (33-40) °c, it gives a logic high signal at the output 3.i.e. Relay 3.ifthe
temperature is below the lowest temperature and above the highest temperature, it
gives a logic low signal at all outputs. This project also presents the expected
performance of the automatic fan system, construction of hardware and software
development to gather the performance data.
