L'Arduino Opta 8A.04-8320 è un micro-PLC sviluppato attraverso la collaborazione tra le aziende Finder e Arduino. Questa tesi ha l'obiettivo di condurre un'analisi approfondita e una serie di test su questo dispositivo, valutandone l'utilizzo come unità di calcolo per l'edge computing affiancato a PC di maggiore potenza, nei quali vengono eseguite simulazioni di impianti e ambienti HVAC-R. Nel primo progetto, l'Opta è stato integrato all'interno di un circuito atto a simulare il comportamento di una termoresistenza. Il suo ruolo principale consisteva nell'acquisire la caduta di tensione e successivamente calcolare la temperatura simulata in base a essa. Nel secondo progetto, invece, il dispositivo è stato utilizzato come unità di calcolo associata al digital twin di una pompa di calore, al fine di condurre un'analisi dettagliata delle sue funzionalità.

Abstract
The Arduino Opta 8A.04-8320 represents a micro-PLC developed through a collaboration between the companies Finder and Arduino. This thesis aims to conduct a thorough analysis and a series of tests on this device, evaluating its use as a computing unit for edge computing alongside more powerful PCs, in which simulations of HVAC-R systems and environments are executed. In the first project, the Opta was integrated into a circuit designed to simulate the behavior of a thermoresistor. Its primary role was to acquire the voltage drop and then calculate the simulated temperature based on this reading. In the second project, on the other hand, the device was employed as a computing unit paired with the digital twin of a heat pump for a detailed analysis of its functionalities.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
