This document summarizes a research paper on maximizing the power output of a photovoltaic (PV) system using perturb and observe (P&O) control applied to maximum power point tracking (MPPT). It describes how PV output is affected by solar irradiance and temperature. A boost converter is used along with a P&O MPPT algorithm to continuously adjust the duty cycle and extract maximum power from the PV panel. Simulation results show that using MPPT improves efficiency from 73% without MPPT to 97.6% with MPPT by ensuring the PV operates at its maximum power point under changing conditions. The study demonstrates that MPPT effectively increases PV system performance compared to direct connection without MPPT control.

The two basic topologies of switch mode DC-DC converters (Buck and Boost) are analyzed with a view of their use in PV (photovoltaic) systems, as the photovoltaic generator exhibits non-linear characteristics due to the change in environmental condition and load variation. As the efficiency of PV panels is low it becomes mandatory to extract maximum power from the PV panel at a given period of time. Several MPPT algorithms with different types of converters are being proposed for extracting maximum power from the PV panel. It is found that the nature of load plays an important role in the choice of topology. This paper investigates the implementation issues of Incremental Conductance method with Buck and Boost Converters. Mathematical analysis and desirable steady-state operating point of the converters are derived to give satisfactory maximum power point tracking operation.
In this paper a buck-boost dc-dc converter for pv application is proposed, which is mainly composed of a buck – boost converter, PV panel, load and a battery. Existing dc-dc converter can convert the power from the PV panel, but unfortunately the PV panel can only provide power when there is a high intensity of light. In order to provide power supply to the load without any interruption, buck-boost dc-dc converter is introduced. The power intermittency issue of PV panel can be overcome with the aid of a secondary supply which is in this case, the batter. The integration system between the primary and the secondary supply is controlled by a simple proposed control scheme. Battery act as a power in the low voltage side while PV panel is taking over in the high voltage side. Buck-boost converter is operated either is buck or boost mode according to the performance of the PV panel. This paper is presented the simple control scheme to decide the mode suitable for the buck and boost mode. Various conditions are simulated to verify the working operation of the buck-boost converter and to representing solar panel in real life.

This paper expands a sliding mode fuzzy controller which sliding surface gain is on-line tuned by minimum fuzzy inference algorithm. The main goal is to guarantee acceptable trajectories tracking between the second order nonlinear system (robot manipulator) actual and the desired trajectory. The fuzzy controller in proposed sliding mode fuzzy controller is based on Mamdani’s fuzzy inference system (FIS) and it has one input and one output. The input represents the function between sliding function, error and the rate of error. The outputs represent torque, respectively. The fuzzy inference system methodology is on-line tune the sliding surface gain based on error-based fuzzy tuning methodology. Pure sliding mode fuzzy controller has difficulty in handling unstructured model uncertainties. To solve this problem applied fuzzy-based tuning method to sliding mode fuzzy controller for adjusting the sliding surface gain (ë ). Since the sliding surface gain (ë) is adjusted by fuzzy-based tuning method, it is nonlinear and continuous. Fuzzy-based tuning sliding mode fuzzy controller is stable model-free controller which eliminates the chattering phenomenon without to use the boundary layer saturation function. Lyapunov stability is proved in fuzzy-based tuning sliding mode fuzzy controller based on switching (sign) function. This controller has acceptable performance in presence of uncertainty (e.g., overshoot=0%, rise time=0.8 second, steady state error = 1e-9 and RMS error=1.8e-12).
The sliding mode control approach is recognized as one of the
efficient tools to design robust controllers for complex high-order non-linear dynamic plant operating under uncertainty conditions.
Design Model-free Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control of Internal Combustion EngineCSCJournals
Modeling and control of engine systems are vital due to wide range of their applications. As it is obvious stability is the minimum requirement in any control system, however the proof of stability is not trivial especially in the case of nonlinear systems. One of the most active research areas in field of internal combustion engine (IC engine) is control of the fuel ratio. The strategies for control of engines are classified into two main groups: classical and non-classical methods, where the classical methods used the conventional control theory and non-classical methods used the artificial intelligence theory such as fuzzy logic, neural networks and/or neurofuzzy. One of the best nonlinear robust controllers which can be used in uncertainty nonlinear systems is sliding mode controller (SMC). Chattering phenomenon is the most important challenge in this controller. Fuzzy logic and neuro control have been applied successfully in many applications. Therefore stable control of an internal combustion engine is challenging because it has uncertain dynamic parameters. This research presents a design fuzzy sliding mode controller with improved in sliding mode controller which offers a model-free sliding mode controller. The fuzzy sliding mode controller is designed as a 49 rules Mamdani’s error-based fuzzy sliding-like equivalent part instead of nonlinear dynamic equation of equivalent part. Various performance indices like the minimum error, trajectory, disturbance rejection, and chattering control are used for comparison.

Solar energy is a vital untapped resource in a tropical country like ours. The main hindrance for the penetration and reach of solar PV systems is their low efficiency and high capital cost. The efficiency of solar PV is very low. In order to increase the efficiency, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) techniques are to be undertaken to match the source and load property. These techniques are employed in PV systems to make full utilization of PV array output power. Recently, many MPPT algorithms of PV system have been proposed which depends on solar irradiation and temperature, but perturb and observe (P&O) and Incremental conductance algorithms are basic and most widely used. This project firstly introduces a Mat lab Simulink of photovoltaic array. To achieve the maximum power point tracking the Incremental Conductance method and perturb and observed (P&O) method are used. These two algorithms are employed with PV model along with converter in Mat lab Simulink. Three different converter boost, buck boost and cuk converter are design according to requirement and used.

Abstract PV Module Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) is a photovoltaic system that uses the photovoltaic array as a source of electrical power supply. Every photovoltaic (PV) array has an optimum operating point, called the maximum power point, which varies depending on cell temperature, the insulation level and array voltage. The function of MPPT is needed to operate the PV array at its maximum power point. The design of a Maximum Peak Power Tracking (MPPT) is proposed utilizing a cuk converter topology. Solar panel voltage and current are continuously monitored by a MPPT, and the duty cycle of the cuk converter continuously adjusted to extract maximum power. The design consists of a PV array, DC-DC cuk converter and many such algorithms have been proposed. However, one particular algorithm, the Incremental Conductance method, claimed by many in the literature to be inferior to others, continues to be by far the most widely used method in commercial PV MPPT’s. The general model was implemented on Mat lab, and accepts irradiance and temperature as variable parameters and outputs the I-V characteristic and P-V characteristic Index Terms: PV system; Maximum power point tracking (MPPT); Incremental conductance (Inccond); digital signal processor (dsp)

Study and Simulation of Inccond Based Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Alg...paperpublications3
Abstract: The entire world is facing a challenge to overcome the hurdle of energy crisis. It is fairly evident that a need exist for developing alternative energy sources. Amongst all the available renewable energy sources, solar energy appears to be a viable option as it is easily and widely available. If used in a proper way, it has a capacity to fulfill numerous energy needs of the world. Hence there is great scope of work in field of solar photovoltaic aiming at improved and efficient performances. Solar PV modules convert solar energy into electrical form but are having high non-linear current-voltage relationship which implies that they can operate at only one single point for maximum power. So extraction of maximum power in itself becomes a challenge under varying set of conditions of irradiation and temperature. A step by step approach is followed to analyze and address the problem with high frequency switching DC-DC converters that act as an interface between the module and the load and adjust the switching duty ratio so as to match the load line with that of Maximum Power Point load line. Further there exist various control algorithms to modify duty ratio. Their study is done and one such technique Incremental Conductance (IncCond) is used to process current and voltage of PV array to get the duty ratio. The results are obtained for changing radiation as well. In the present study, a review of Hill Climbing MPPT techniques, has been carried out with detailed flowcharts of algorithms and includes latest research papers published on MPPT techniques.

This paper presents a study of comparison and combination between two methods: capacitive and electronic loading to track I-V characteristic. The comparison was performed in terms of accuracy, response time and instrumentation cost used in each circuit, under standard temperature and illumination conditions by using polycrystalline solar panel type SX330J and monocrystalline solar panels type ET-M53630. The whole system is based on simple components, less expensive and especially widely used in laboratories. The results will be between the datasheet of the manufacturer with the experimental data, refinements and improvements concerning the number of points and the trace time have been made by combining these two methods.

An Intelligent Technique By Using The Method of Constant Coefficient of Short...Ali Mahmood
Photovoltaic (PV) system is extensively increasing since it is clean,
pollution free, and inexhaustible and by consider available resource as a future
energy supply. The PV array output power is used to directly control the Pulse-width
modulation (PWM), dc/dc boost converter, thereby reducing the complexity of the
system. The resulting system has high efficiency with lower cost. This paper presents
an improved Constant Coefficient of Short Circuit Current (CCSCC) Maximum Power
Point Tracking (MPPT) technique under PWM control of photovoltaic (PV) power
generation systems to obtain the maximum output power. The solar panel is
modelled and analyzed in MATLAB/SIMULINK.
This paper deals with an advanced design for a pump powered by solar energyto supply agricultural lands with water and also the maximum power point is used to extract the maximum value of the energy available inside the solar panels and comparing between techniques MPPT such as Incremental conductance, perturb & observe, fractional short current circuit, and fractional open voltage circuit to find the best technique among these. The solar system is designed with main parts: photovoltaic (PV) panel, direct current/direct current (DC/DC) converter, inverter, filter, and in addition, the battery is used to save energy in the event that there is an increased demand for energy and not to provide solar radiation, as well as saving energy in the case of generation more than demand. This work was done using the matrix laboratory (MATLAB) simulink program.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Pv Cell Model In Simulink:
A solar cell is the building block of a solar panel. A photovoltaic module is formed by connecting many
solar cells in series and parallel. Considering only a single solar cell, it can be modeled by utilizing a current
source, a diode which is basically a p-n semiconductor junction and two resistors. One diode connected in
parallel, one resistor connected in series.
This model is known as a single diode model of solar cell. Fig. 1 depicts the block diagram of the PV
system, built in MATLAB/Simulink. The PV array panel has the following specifications at the standard test
conditions (STD, solar irradiance of 1000 W/m² and temperature of 25 °C). The V-I characteristic of a solar
array is given by (1).
V Rs I
q ( V Rs I

nk Tk
R sh
I Isc I 0 exp
(1)
Where:
V and I represent the output voltage and current of the PV, respectively.
Rs and Rsh are the series and shunt resistance of the cell.
q is the electronic charge.
ISC is the light-generated current.
Io is the reverse saturation current.
n is a dimensionless factor.
k is the Boltzman constant, and Tk is the temperature in °K.
There are two key parameters frequently used to characterize a PV cell. Shorting together the terminals of
the cell, the photon generated current will follow out of the cell as a short-circuit current (Isc). Thus, Iph = Isc,
when there is no connection to the PV cell (open-circuit), the photon generated current is shunted internally by
the intrinsic p-n junction diode. This gives the open circuit voltage (Voc) [9][10]. A moderate model of pv cell is
shown in Fig. 1.
Fig. 1: Equivalent circuit of PV array
Characteristics of a Pv Panel:
The PV array characteristics significantly influence the design of the inverter and the controller for the
whole PV system. Therefore, it is essential to review the model of the PV array as the preliminary design to
obtain the respective I-V and P-V characteristic curves.
A. Effect of Irradiance (Insolation):

W/m2.

Fig. 2: Variation of PV array characteristics with solar irradiance, temperature is fixed at 25 °C.
The current of the PV array increases from 1.19A to 3.02A while the open-circuit voltage increases
marginally as the irradiance levels changes from 400 m2 to 1000 m2, as depicted in Fig. 2. The maximum power
point of the panel increases with a steep positive slope, proportional to the irradiance. Higher irradiance levels
result in associated higher power maxima and in higher voltages at the power maxima, if the cell temperature is
constant (SUGANYA, J., M. CAROLIN MABEL, 2012; Abu Tariq, Mohammed Asim and Mohd.Tariq, 2011;
Roberto, F., et al., 2012).
A. Effect of Cell Temperature Variations:
The effect of cell temperature on the P-V and I-V characteristics are plotted in Fig.3. Note the reduction of
maximum available PV power and the lower voltage of this peak power point, as a function of higher cell
temperatures.
Fig. 3: Variation of PV array characteristics with temperature, solar irradiance is fixed at 1000 W/m².
The open-circuit voltage of the PV array decreases from 15V to 21.2V while the current increases
marginally from 3.02A to 3.21A as the temperature changes from 25°C to 75°C, as depicted in Fig. 3.
The current and power at MPP are slightly decreased as the temperature increases.
From the above figures, it is clear that there is a maximum point at each irradiance value with the
temperature value.
Running the system without MPPT:
Direct connection of the solar panel to a battery is cheapest. The major drawback of this operation is directly
dependent on the power supplied by the generator PV. The power transmitted directly to a battery is not always
carried out at the maximum power (Pmax).

Boost Converter:
There are two modes of operation of a boost converter. Those are based on the closing and opening of the
switch. The first mode is when the switch is closed; this is known as the charging mode of operation. The
second mode is when the switch is open; this is known as the discharging mode of operation. In this mode of
operation; the switch is closed and the inductor is charged by the source through the switch (SUGANYA, J., M.
CAROLIN MABEL, 2012; Saurav Satpathy, 2012).

Fig. 5: Boost converter circuit:
The charging current is exponential in nature but for simplicity is assumed to be linearly varying .The diode
restricts the flow of current from the source to the load and the demand of the load is met by the discharging of
the capacitor. In this mode of operation; the switch is open and the diode is forward biased. The inductor now
discharges and together with the source charges the capacitor and meets the load demands. The load current
variation is very small and in many cases is assumed constant throughout the operation (Sharma, D.K., G.
Purohit, 2012; Ansel Barchowsky, et al., 2012).
Vin
The boost converter provides the higher output than input as per the following formula:
Vout =
1 D
where
D is the duty cycle of the boost converter. The power switch is responsible for modulating the energy transfer
from the input source to the load by varying the duty cycle D (Sharma, D.K., G. Purohit, 2012; Abu Tariq,
Mohammed Asim and Mohd.Tariq, 2011).

The MPP tracker operates by periodically incrementing or decrementing the solar array current. If a given
perturbation leads to an increase (decrease) the output power of the PV, then the subsequent perturbation is
generated in the same (opposite) direction.
Running the System with MPPT:
The Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is a technique used to obtain the maximum possible power
for more wide range from a varying source. The aim of any MPPT algorithm is to extract the maximum power
from the PV array panels. There are many methods used for MPPT. In this paper, the P&O method is being used
to accurately track the MPP.
Perturb & Observe Algorithm:
The Perturb and Observe algorithm is considered to be the most commonly used MPPT algorithm of all the
techniques because of its simple structure and ease of implementation. It is based on the concept that on the
power-voltage curve dP/dV goes to zero at the top of the curve as illustrated in Fig. 2 or Fig. 3. The P&O operates
by periodically perturbing (incrementing or decrementing) the PV array terminal voltage or current and
comparing the corresponding output power of PV array P(n+1) with that at the previous perturbation P(n). If the
perturbation in terminal voltage leads to an increase in power (dP/dV >0), the perturbation should be kept in the
same direction otherwise the perturbation is moved to the opposite direction. The perturbation cycle is repeated
until the maximum power is reached at the (dP/dV=0) point. The flowchart of P&O algorithm is shown in Fig. 7
(Aashoor, F.A.O., F.V.P. Robinson, 2012; Zainuri, M.A.A., et al., 2012).

The duty cycle of the boost converter is controlled in accordance with the varying solar insolation by using
a controller algorithm. In Fig. 7, set Duty out denotes the perturbation of the solar array voltage; Duty+ and
Duty- represent the subsequent perturbation in the same or opposite direction, respectively (Sharma, D.K., G.
Purohit, 2012).
Using an adaptation stage (boost converter) optimizes energy production for any operating condition; we
will see the next test results obtained with this approach.

Fig. 9: Plot of Voltage, Current and Power output of PV panel / time with MPPT
Comparing the simulation results of the converter (shown in Fig. 9) with measurements made in Fig 4:
With the measured values of the characteristics of the panel for G = 1000W/m², we have:
Ipmax =2.705 A, Vpv=17.81V, Pmax=48.18w
Direct connection, we have in simulation:
Ipv =2.93 A, Vpv =12V, Ppv=35.26w.
The efficiency in the maximum power point: ηMPP =73%.
With the converter, we have in simulation:
Ipv=2.84 A, VpV =16.56V, Ppv=47.02, ηMPPT =97.6%.
The PV system would operate at around 73% matching without the use of a MPPT converter. By using
MPPT, the matching for this case could be improved to at least 97.5%.
So, we can say that the use of the MPPT algorithm has better efficiency.
Conclusion Algorithm:
The operating conditions of the optimum PV power gained from the PV array is affected by solar
irradiation, cell temperature and loading conditions and the output current-voltage characteristics of solar arrays
are nonlinear. Therefore, a maximum power point tracking control is needed to continually match the PV
internal resistance with the loading effect. In this paper, a proposed P&O algorithm for MPPT control in boost
DC-DC converter is presented. MPPT control by P&O algorithm with the PV generator can operate on the
power optimal curve electrical problems throughout the entire range of variation of light and temperature.
Therefore, it was seen that using the P&O MPPT technique increased the efficiency of the photovoltaic system
from an earlier output power. So, it can be concluded that the proposed P&O algorithm based MPPT will be
able to achieve the better efficiency in comparison to the direct connection. Therefore, the results show that it
gives better correlation with the datasheet values.
