Design of Solar Photovoltaic DC Water Pumping System Using MPPT
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems are having growing importance in present era of our power system due to its nonpolluting, less maintenance, and free fuel characteristics. Photovoltaic systems are comprised of photovoltaic cells, devices that convert light energy directly into electricity. Since the source of light is usually the sun, they are often called solar cells. Photovoltaic modules are widely used in DC applications. One of these applications may be in water pumping system. The boost converter has been used boosting the weak output voltage generated by the cells. Boosting of voltage is being done in reality by the maximum power point technique (MPPT). In this technique the automated tracking to give the highest output power is done by an algorithm. This generated power is fed to a boosting load across which the boosted output voltage is being received. This output voltage is then fed to operate a PMDC motor, driving a pumping system.
