ABSTRACT: In current days fuel stations are operated manually. These fuel pumps are time consuming and require more manpower. To place fuel
stations in distant area it very costly to provide excellent facility to the consumers all these problem are sorted out by the use of unmanned petrol
pump which requires less time to operate and it is effective and can be installed anywhere the customer self-going to avail the services the
payment is done by electronic clearing system. The simple and proper use of microcontroller and GSM technology provides a total security and
atomization in distribution of fuel.It has easy operated mobile phone system and graphics user interface (GUI). It is interface with high speed fuel
dispenser which is convenient for consumer to operate. In our system the password will be provided to the user via his mobile phone by the petrol pump
GSM customer has to enter this password on the LCD provided by the fuel station which will help the petrol company to create authentication for user
also the distribution of the fuel is not possible until it gets verified by the database. In short we provide secure system for fuel distribution. The
advancement of this project can help industry financially.
INTRODUCTION
The 21st century is aptly known as the internet age
because of the increasing use of internet in the day
to day activities. Examples of these applications
include online banking and brokerage, cash
management, tax filling, computerized petrol pump,
medical field. As far as computerized petrol pump is
concerned, a lot has already been done in this field.
Each and every data is being inserted with the help
of the computers. But as far as safety of Fuel pump
is concerned we are still behind the world. Leakage
of petrol or any oil leads to a blast and stealing of
petrol may lead to debacle. The aim of the system is
to provide an authentication to the user & control the
opening or closing of the tank valve according to
amount demanded. We will use GSM technology for
this purpose.
The system will consist of three units:
Two units will be placed at petrol station which will
take care of customers needs & also it will
continuously monitor the fuel level, temperature of
fuel & any accidental situation that may happen at
the petrol station. The third is the data base
regarding customers ids, passwords & will also take
care of the account balance. The GSM module will
act as a link between customer & petroleum
industry. The software part of this project will help to
keep record of all the things in short we are
providing total security while distributing the fuel.
A. Aim of the project
Various petroleum industries are becoming very careful
about manufacturing & distribution of their products. New
technology addresses these requirements, providing the
foundation to allow cooperative interaction to be
developed. Thus the unmanned petrol pump using gsm is
an example of new technology which will be providing the
base for security of product distribution & data keeping
using database. As the project is PC controlled, the
project will be connected to one of the PC ports &
programming languages like SQL & C++.
B. Purpose
The purpose of this planning is to establish the scope of
the project in terms of the major functions, performance
issues and technical constraints. The plan will provide an
estimate of the size of the product, the effort required and
the duration. This plan will also consider the risk
encountered during the project and the strategies for
dealing with them. The plan will also discuss the detailed
schedule of various subtasks within the project and also
the resources needed to accomplish them.
C. Brief History
In starting days the petrol pumps were distributing petrol
using manpower to respective customer vehicles and
was totally depends on man‘s loyalty who was doing this
job. Nowadays industries are becoming very careful
about these things and trying to centrally control all the
production and distribution of products. For the secure
distribution of products, industries trying to develop the
new advance security system to achieve their goals.
However today petrol distribution system is has some
disadvantages regarding with stealing of petrol,
unauthorized petrol selling & wastage of manpower etc.
II. THEORATICAL DETAILS & ANALYSIS
In our project customer who wants to use unmanned
petrol pump will need to register his/herself to
corresponding petroleum industry with an initial amount to
recharge their balance. Customer demanding fuel from
petroleum industry will first message to the GSM no. of
nearby petrol pump. Now, our system comes into
existence in three parts. The first part is the customer
part, in this part customer will send his user id & amount
of the petrol required in rupees & he will receive back a
password now when he will reach to the petrol pump he needs to enter his password for authentication &
then the corresponding amount of petrol will be
available to fill in his car. The second part is the data
base, this will contain the customer‘s used id their
accounts summary (balance) & passwords
respective to the coupons for example; if a customer
sends a message using format [IDuser_idPamount]
like [ID101P100]this means that customer‘s user id
is 101 & he is demanding a petrol of rupees 100.
This message will be received at petrol pump GSM
which in turn sends it to the data base in control
cabin via microcontroller. So now microcontroller will
check the user id in data base & it will send the
corresponding coupon password via GSM module of
petrol pump to the customer‘s mobile. Initially the
status of the coupon is ‗1‘. One more part which will
be handled with the help of the data base is the
automatic payment reduction system. Here
whenever user will enter a password which he has
received on his mobile phone on the LCD provided
by the petrol pump with the help of keypad & if he is
an authenticated user then the corresponding
coupon will be used then after microcontroller will
send a +12V supply to a motor which is connected
to a petrol tank with the help of relay RS232 loop
circuit. For a particular time corresponding to the
amount of petrol requested, microcontroller will
provide the supply to the motor & then it will stop
after the filling of petrol in customer‘s vehicle the
process will get over & the status of the
corresponding coupon which has been used will
become ‗0‘ & also data base program is designed in
such a way that it will update the account balance of
the corresponding user. The third & the most
important part is sensor part. In this part we are
more focused on the safety & preciseness in the
automation of the system. At the start the LCD will
display regular temperature, level of the fuel in the
tank & also count. It includes three sensors, first one
is the temperature sensor it will monitor the
temperature of the petrol in the tank & if it exceeds a
critical temperature due to any surrounding
circumstances it will indicate the owner of the petrol
pump before any hazardous situation happens.
Second sensor is the IR sensor, it is mainly used for
the purpose for avoiding the situation of the traffic at
the petrol pump it will increase the count shown on
the LCD as a vehicle will arrive at the petrol pump &
it will keep on incrementing the count unless that
owner has finished filling up the petrol in his vehicle,
so in this way it will help the owner to know about
the current situation at the petrol station, if at all
some vehicle gets stuck in the middle of the process
& rest of the vehicles stay in a queue so this IR
sensor will increment the count & after exceeding
the limit it will notify it to the owner via GSM
message. The third sensor is the level sensor which
will continuously monitor the level of the petrol in the
tank, If at all the petrol level reaches to level one
then it will keep on sending the message to the
petrol owner about the insufficient amount of petrol
in the tank till the owner of the petrol pump refills the
petrol tank.
