Description
Summary:It is important to use sustainable and renewable resources efficiently for a sustainable life. In this direction, in this study, it is aimed to emphasize the importance of freshwater resources and renewable energy resources, which are important parts of life, and to raise awareness about protecting natural resources. In this context, a portable, plant watering system has been developed that uses solar energy to cool the gaseous water in the air in a controlled manner with the help of thermoelectric modules and fans, stores the water by condensation, and can irrigate in a controlled manner as needed. As a result of the experimental study, the amount of water produced by the system is equal to the theoretical calculations. In this way, with this system it will be possible to irrigate domestic plants or hobby gardens by obtaining the optimum amount of water through controlled condensation.
