A simple and efficient solar photovoltaic (PV) water pumping system utilizing an induction motor drive (IMD) is presented in this paper. This solar PV water pumping system comprises of two stages
In this work, tiny servo motors controlled directly by the microcontroller are used to moving the PV panel with very low energy consumption. On the other part, in a large solar PV system, the required structure will be much heavier and will require powerful motors and the power requirements will be higher.
DC power obtained from PV panels can directly supply to DC motor or it can be converted to alternating current (AC) using an inverter to drive AC motor. Fig. 1 shows four possible ways of power transfer from PV to either DC or AC drive applications and are described as followed as:
The LDRs were used to determine the position and direction of the solar photovoltaic module. Two pairs of LDRs were fixed to the solar panels, and the differences between the measured current signal by LDRs in each group were utilized to trigger DC motors.
Moreover, we used servo motors for the motorization of the PV panel instead of stepper motors or DC motors as in 50, 56, 55 that need an interface circuit to control the speed and the position, which increases the materials and the consumption of the energy.
Under the dynamic state, the integrated PV generation system makes the 4RC delay of the PV generation system. This dynamic time delay of 4RC can be controlled by adjusting the value C of superC.
