摘要
South Africa could potentially face a shortage of water in the near future. Efficient and low cost methods to determine water usage are vital to help prevent this issue. Flow and usage meters are necessary to ensure accurate usage readings. An electromagnetic flow meter and a water usage meter were developed. The designed module can be implemented on a standard water pipe at residential areas. The developed system harvests energy using a solar panel.
