Data logger records data over time to ensure reliable and repeatable temperature
measurements hence the control, performances and efficiency of the combustor. The
focus of this study is to develop a simple and low-cost laboratory data logger system
for high temperature measurements using thermocouple type K and Raspberry Pi.
Firstly, the characterization of thermocouple K type investigated through open
combustion process. Secondly, data logging coding was developed for the Raspberry
Pi 3 to process the data readings and store them accordingly. Lastly, The Raspberry
Pi 3 will be turned into a web server at the same time so that logged data could be
retrieved using web browser by another device in the same network either with wire
or wirelessly. The retrieval data temperature logging process is easier by the use of
Raspberry Pi. Temperature measurement with the data acquisition system was
developed.
