Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of constant temperature control system technology, specifically a real-time monitoring and constant temperature control system for underwater aquaculture environments. Background Technology

[0002] Submersible aquaculture is a type of aquaculture that takes place in water and typically involves the cultivation of marine products such as fish, shellfish, and seaweed. This method can be carried out in rivers, lakes, oceans, or other bodies of water, with the aim of increasing aquatic product yields, improving the aquaculture environment, and reducing dependence on terrestrial resources. Submersible aquaculture usually involves using equipment such as net cages, floating rafts, and aquaculture nets to anchor the cultured organisms underwater. Compared to traditional terrestrial aquaculture methods, this approach offers several advantages, such as better water quality control, more efficient ecosystem management, and less reliance on terrestrial resources.

[0003] Generally, monitoring and regulation of underwater aquaculture environments typically require manual monitoring and adjustment. This leads to untimely monitoring or inaccurate regulation, increasing operational uncertainty and risk. The lack of real-time data acquisition and transmission capabilities necessitates regular on-site inspections by aquaculture personnel, making it impossible to obtain timely information on environmental parameter changes. The need for manual monitoring in traditional systems increases labor costs, especially at night or in remote areas. Furthermore, temperature regulation relies on simple mechanical equipment with low precision, making it difficult to maintain a constant water temperature and impacting aquaculture performance. Alarms and emergency responses require manual intervention, resulting in slow response times and an inability to promptly address unforeseen events, increasing the risk of losses. Remote monitoring is difficult to achieve, as aquaculture personnel cannot monitor and manage the aquaculture environment in real-time from a remote control center or mobile devices. The lack of intelligent control algorithms also leads to energy waste, such as prolonged operation of heating or cooling equipment, increasing energy costs and environmental burden.

[0004] In summary, a real-time monitoring and constant temperature control system for underwater aquaculture environments is needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
