Research based on Renewable Energy Systems:

Photo voltaic pumping system is the one of the application of PV system. Various configurations can be used to operate solar water pumping systems (SWPS) to enhance the efficiency of the system such as SWPS directly coupled with motor drive, SWPS using motor control mechanism. Sensor less induction motor drive (IMD) can be used to operate pump, wherein voltage source inverter along with MPPT control techniques results efficient operation of water pump. Switching signal generated by space vector modulation (SVM) reduces the harmonics in the line voltage of inverter [14]. To drive motor with maximum efficiency, field-oriented control schemes are generally implemented because of reduction of losses and complexity of the system.

Mono-crystalline type silicon solar cells have the highest efficiency and that is 20–30 % only. Even, depending upon the environmental condition and the loading condition the available power from solar cells may further reduce. Besides the energy conversion in the solar cells, extraction of energy converted is also very important. Therefore, in order to extract maximum available power, a control arrangement known as maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is usually implemented for the operation of a PV system at optimal condition under varying operating conditions. Various MPPT techniques have been reported in literature such as perturbation and observation (P & O), constant voltage, fractional open-circuit voltage/short-circuit current, intelligent technique and incremental conductance (IC). Out of all these algorithms, P&O, Constant Voltage and incremental conductance are the largely practiced algorithms.
