The hardware design of Power regulator in Fluid-power measuring experimental platform

This paper describes the detailed hardware design of Power regulator in Fluid-power measuring experimental platform which is one kind of power control system. The function of this part mainly is adjusting heating power that based on temperature requirements, and then calculates the new power measurement. The hardware device mainly is composed of two parts, AC power regulator circuit and AC voltage measurement circuit. The former measured output voltage of heater, while the latter measured output current. The heating power can be obtained after sampling them and corresponding treatments for them. Through the analysis of measurement data, the results show that it's reasonable for power measurement with this program and more accurate data can be obtained. Overall, the results fit better with the facts.
