Abstract—

A block diagram of the control system and registration of the parameters of a thermo-photoelectric module has been developed. The model of the electrical circuit of the control system and registration of characteristics has been created. The system is based on the ATmega32 microcontroller and allows regulating the temperature of the coolant at the output of the thermophotovoltaic module, while simultaneously fixing and recording on the SD card the date and time of measurements, the value of the coolant flow, its temperature, voltage, and current of the solar battery. Computer simulation of the circuit operation in the Proteus program has been carried out.
