Project Introduction
Background
The term aquaponics is used for an agriculture system involving the simultaneous cultivation of plants and aquatic animals, such as fish, in a symbiotic environment. Aquaponics systems can be used in outdoor set up or indoor aquaponics greenhouses.
Motivation
Labour and energy usage is the largest cost factor for aquaponics systems. Energy consumption varies largely with the layout and purpose of the system. The project investigates a novel approach of using solar energy to provide electric energy required for sensing and monitoring an aquaponics system.
Project Aim
This project aims to verify the feasibility of using solar PV system to supply the consumption of the aquaponics system and detect how to predict and monitoring the dynamic condition of the system by software and electronic sensors.

model explanation
The new model add silver perch in fish type, add strawberry, mint, and zucchini in plant type, which are new introduced in the new aquaponic model. Temperature are added as one factors to determine the simulation outcome. pH changes simulation was added. Water flow and Energy flow were adjusted to satisfy the new grow media and NFT combination model. The solar radiance data was re-written base on the sensor-detected data. The following data and chart do not reflect the real amount or number, but the ratio between each factor.
