This document presents an improved constant voltage based maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique for a permanent magnet DC motor (PMDC) driven by a standalone photovoltaic (SAPV) system. The technique uses a pilot PV panel to measure the open circuit voltage of the main PV panel in order to track the MPP without disconnecting the panel from the load. A proportional-integrator controller is used to adjust the duty cycle of a DC-DC converter such that the PV voltage matches the MPP voltage. Simulation results show that the array efficiency increases under varying temperature and solar insolation conditions when using the improved MPPT technique compared to directly coupling the PV panel to the motor load.
A Study of Shading Effect on Photovoltaic Modules with Proposed P&O Checking ...Yayah Zakaria
Sun irradiation levels and associated temperature changes are the main factors that influence the conversion of solar energy into electricity. Most energy is produced during a hot sunny day as the sun irradiation is at the maximum level and uniform throughout the solar photovoltaic (PV). However, most solar PV were frequently get shadowed, completely or partially, by the neighbouring buildings, trees and passing clouds. Consequently, the solar PV has lower voltage and current output, hence,
multiple maximum power points (MPP) are existed on the PV curve, which could cause confusion to the conventional Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) to track the true MPP for the PV system. Thus, it is important to examine the impacts of partial shading on the solar PV in order to extract the maximum possible power. This paper presents a MATLAB-based modelling for simulation and experimental setup to study the I-V and P-V characteristics of a solar module under a non-uniform irradiation due to partial shading condition (PSC). Furthermore, this study is also proposed an effective method (a variable step size of P&O with checking algorithm) that is low cost and higher tracking efficiency. Thus, this study is essential in improving and evaluating any new MPPT algorithm under the PSC.

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)

The use of photovoltaic (PV) systems is increasingly growing in importance since they involve an exploitation of solar radiation constituting an energy source which is renewable, available in most places, and pollution-free. Despite their numerous advantages, PV systems have two major drawbacks: low energy conversion efficiency and loss of energy due to variations in meteorological conditions; for this reason, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control techniques play a key role in exploiting the maximum energy caught by PV modules. The output characteristic of a photovoltaic array is nonlinear and changes with solar irradiation and the cell’s temperature. Therefore, a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique is needed to draw peak power from the solar array to maximize the produced energy. In this study we have analyzed the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) method and finding out a new and easier way to track maximum power point (MPP) and also our study is focused to overcome the drawbacks of MPPT. This research paper presents a novel MPP tracking method for tracking exact Maximum Power Point (MPP) if the irradiation or load changes.

Dual – MPPT Control of a Photovoltaic SystemIJTET Journal
Abstract - This paper proposes an efficient solar tracker system using a dual MPPT controller. It consists of three step DC to DC converter, which has been controlled by a microcontroller based unit. MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) is used in photovoltaic system to maximize the PV array output power, irrespective of temperature, irradiation conditions and electrical characteristics of the load. The first MPPT controller is a dual axis solar tracker, which ensures optimization of the conversion of solar energy into electricity by properly orienting the PV panel in accordance with the real position of the sun to track azimuth and elevation angles. The second MPPT controller controls the duty cycle of the converter using modified Incremental Conductance algorithm to enable the PV array operate at maximum operating power at all conditions. The proposed control scheme eliminates oscillations and tracks the global maximum power point (GMPP) accurately. The simulation has been accomplished in MATLAB software.

Maximum Power Point Tracking Charge Controller for Standalone PV SystemTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
The depletion of conventional energy sources and global warming has raised worldwide
awareness on the usage of renewable energy sources particularly solar photovoltaic (PV). Renewable
energy sources are non-polluting sources which can meet energy demands without causing any
environmental issues. For standalone PV systems, a low conversion efficiency of the solar panel and high
installation cost due to storage elements are the two primary constraints that limit the wide spread use of
this system. As the size of the system increases, the demand for a highly efficient tracking and charging
system is very crucial. Direct charging of battery with PV module will results in loss of capacity or
premature battery degradation. Furthermore, most of the available energy generated by the PV module or
array will be wasted if proper tracking technique is not employed. As a result, more PV panels need to be
installed to provide the same output power capacity. This paper presents selection, design and simulation
of maximum power point tracker (MPPT) and battery charge controller for standalone Photovoltaic (PV)
system. Contributions are made in several aspects of the whole system, including selection of suitable
converter, converter design, system simulation, and MPPT algorithm. The proposed system utilizes direct
duty cycle technique thus simplifying its control structure. MPPT algorithm based on scanning approach
has been applied by sweeping the duty cycle throughout the I -V curve to ensure continuous tracking of the
maximum power irrespective of any environmental circumstances. For energy storage, lead acid battery is
employed in this work. MATLAB/Simulink® was utilized for simulation studies. Results show that the

both quantitatively as well as qualitatively. Further, comparison of the
48-pulse converter on its THD and current ripple which is connected towards
the grid with simple pulse width modulation technique is also proposed. It
combines all features of the low switching concepts and DC current reinjection
techniques. Some basic topological explanation of the controlled
rectifiers and simulation results using MATLAB are also presented in this
paper in order to justify the harmonic analysis. The simulation results along
with the quantitative results shows the effectiveness of the proposed scheme
for the cancelation or the elimination of the harmonics result in maximum
harmonic mitigation, for high power utility applications, the 48-pulse
converter is most fitting to improve the conversion efficiency, low di/dt
and dv/dt and active and reactive power controllability.

Modified Distribution Transformer for Enhancing Power Quality in Distribution...IAES-IJPEDS
The percentage of non-linear loads in the power distribution sector is increasing
day by day. Harmonics injected by these non-linear loads circulate in the delta
windings of the conventional distribution transformer thereby increasing the
temperature and losses. This reduces the efficiency and life of the transformers.
In a modified distribution transformer configuration proposed recently, called
star-star-delta_utilized configuration (YYD_utilized), the harmonics circulating
in the delta winding was utilized and the drainage power thus recovered was
used to power auxiliary loads. This paper presents the experimental studies
conducted on YYD_utilized distribution transformer. When compared to
conventional star-star, delta-star and star-star-delta transformers, the new
configuration of YYD_utilized transformer has shown considerable
improvement in transformer efficiency. The results obtained show that when
the power from the circulating harmonics is recovered and utilized, it not only
improves transformer efficiency but also improves the power factor
and reduces the harmonic distortions at the primary side of the transformer.
The results obtained also suggest the existence of maximum power point or an
optimum loading for the recovered harmonic power.
Modelling of Virtual Synchronous Converter for Grid-Inverter Synchronization ...IAES-IJPEDS
In this paper, virtual synchronous converter (VSCon) is been developed
which mimic the behavior of synchronous generator as in order to have fast
synchronization between the inverter with the grid. This synchronization is
important before can sent the power among inverter-grid connection. This
technique can also been applied at the distributed generated sources when are
connected to the local microgrids. Here, the frequency and voltage
synchronization also can be controlled at the same time some improvement
on synchronous generator mathematical model that is suitable to be
implemented into the inverter control. The whole unit of VSCon is operated
and simulated in Matlab/Simulink in order to observe all consequences
during synchronizing the voltage, frequency and phase-angle. It has been
verified by the simulation circuit where, the power converter can be
synchronized with the microrids without using a PLL unit for self
synchronization. This VSCon technique has proven that, by applying the
concept of the synchronous generator model in inverter control, it can cause
the inverter to behave as generator system, which does not required any
phase information from the grid in order to be synchronized.
Enhanced Crowbar Protection for Fault Ride through Capability of Wind Generat...IAES-IJPEDS
Due to increasing demand in power, the integration of renewable sources like
wind generation into power system is gaining much importance nowadays.
The heavy penetration of wind power into the power system leads to many
integration issues mainly due to the intermittent nature of the wind and the
desirability for variable speed operation of the generators. As the wind power
generation depends on the wind speed, its integration into the grid has
noticeable influence on the system stability and becomes an important issue
especially when a fault occurs on the grid. The protective disconnection of a
large amount of wind power during a fault will be an unacceptable
consequence and threatens the power system stability. With the increasing
use of wind turbines employing Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG)
technology, it becomes a necessity to investigate their behavior during grid
faults and support them with fault ride through capability. This paper
presents the modeling and simulation of a doubly fed induction generator
according to grid code compatibility driven by a wind turbine connected to
the grid. This paper analyses the voltage sag due to a three-phase fault in the
wind connected grid. A control strategy including a crowbar circuit has been
developed in MATLAB/SIMULINK to bypass the rotor over currents during
grid fault to enhance the fault ride through capability and to maintain system
stability. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed control
strategies in DFIG based grid connected wind turbine system.
An Improved of Multiple Harmonic Sources Identification in Distribution Syste...IAES-IJPEDS
This paper introduces an improved of multiple harmonic sources
identification that been produced by inverter loads in power system using
time-frequency distribution (TFD) analysis which is spectrogram.
The spectrogram is a very applicable method to represent signals in
time-frequency representation (TFR) and the main advantages
of spectrogram are the accuracy, speed of the algorithm and use low memory
size such that it can be computed rapidly. The identification of multiple
harmonic sources is based on the significant relationship of spectral
impedances which are the fundamental impedance (Z1) and harmonic
impedance (Zh) that extracted from TFR. To verify the accuracy of the
proposed method, MATLAB simulations carried out several unique cases
with different harmonic producing loads on IEEE 4-bus test feeder cases. It is
proven that the proposed method is superior with 100% correct identification
of multiple harmonic sources. It is envisioned that the method is very
accurate, fast and cost efficient to localize harmonic sources in distribution
system.
Performance and Energy Saving Analysis of Grid Connected Photovoltaic in West...IAES-IJPEDS
The paper presents performance and energy saving analysis of 1.25 kWp grid
connected photovoltaic system under difference weather condition in West
Sumatera. The measured data were performed during weather data that often
occur in West Sumatra i.e. sunny, overcast, raining and cloudy.
The synchronizing process successfully done even bad weather conditions
when sunlight was low automatically. Photovoltaic in average start
producing power from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM for normal or clear sky, however
under overcast, raining and cloudy weather, the PV power decreased and
disconnected earlier before sunset. During intermittent raining, overcast and
cloud covered the PV power output show an irregular profile. The PV energy
saving performed for three residential connection cases: 1300 VA, 900 VA
with subsidized and 900 VA without subsidized. The solar PV installation
have more benefits and energy saving for 1300 VA, 900 VA without
subsidized with payback period around 8.5 years. However, the 900 VA with
subsidized take longer 20.8 years, but still in PV lifespan 25 years. In the
future, household subsidies may be reduced or eliminated, the solar energy
will be viable alternative of energy resources when it can produce electricity
at a cost equivalent to utility grid PLN rate.
A Discrete PLL Based Load Frequency Control of FLC-Based PV-Wind Hybrid Power...IAES-IJPEDS
The sun and wind-based generation are considered to besource of green
power generation which can mitigate the power demand issues. As solar and
wind power advancements are entrenched and the infiltration of these
Renewable Energy Sources (RES) into to network is expanding dynamically.
So, as to outline a legitimate control and to harness power from RES the
learning of natural conditions for a specific area is fundamental. Fuzzy Logic
Controller (FLC) based Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controlled
boost converter are utilized for viable operation and to keep DC voltage
steady at desired level. The control scheme of the inverter is intended to keep
the load voltage and frequency of the AC supply at aconstant level regardless
of progress in natural conditions and burden. A Simulink model of the
proposed Hybrid system with the MPPT controlled Boost converters
and Voltage regulated Inverter for stand-alone application is developed in
MATLAB R2015a, Version 8.5.0. The ongoing information of Wind Speed
and Solar Irradiation levels are recorded at BITS-Pilani, Hyderabad Campus
the performance of the voltage regulated inverter under constant and varying
linearAC load is analyzed. The investigation shows that the magnitude of
load voltage and frequency of the load voltage is maintained at desired level
by the proposed inverter control logic.
An Adaptive Virtual Impedance Based Droop Control Scheme for Parallel Inverte...IAES-IJPEDS
This paper presents an adaptive virtual impedance based droop control
scheme for parallel inverter operation in low voltage microgrid. Because it is
essential to achieve power sharing between inverters in microgrid, various
droop control schemes have been proposed. In practice, the line impedance
between inverters and the point of common coupling (PCC) in microgrid are
not always equal. This imbalance in line impedance often results in a reactive
power mismatch among inverters. This problem has been solved by
introducing a virtual impedance loop in the conventional droop control
scheme. However, the reactive power sharing performance of this method is
still deteriorated when the line impedances change during operation. To
overcome such a problem, a new control scheme that is based on a virtual
impedance loop and an impedance estimation scheme is proposed.
To monitor the changes in line impedances, the impedance estimator is
implemented by using the output voltages and currents of inverters as well as
the voltages at the PCC. To compensate for the reactive power mismatch due
to the line impedance changes, the estimated line impedance is fed to the
virtual impedance loop in which it adjusts the virtual impedance value.
Comparative simulation results with the conventional ones verify the
effectiveness of the proposed adaptive virtual impedance based droop control
scheme.
Open-Switch Fault-Tolerant Control of Power Converters in a Grid-Connected Ph...IAES-IJPEDS
This paper presents the study of an open switch fault tolerant control of a
grid-connected photovoltaic system. The studied system is based on the
classical DC-DC boost converter and a bidirectional 6-pulse DC-AC
converter. The objective is to provide an open-switch fault detection method
and fault-tolerant control for both of boost converter and grid-side converter
(GSC) in a grid-connected photovoltaic system. A fast fault detection method
and a reliable fault-tolerant topology are required to ensure continuity of
service, and achieve a faster corrective maintenance. In this work, the mean
value of the error voltages is used as fault indicator for the GSC, while, for
the boost converter the inductor current form is used as fault indicator. The
fault-tolerant topology was achieved by adding one redundant switch to the
boost converter, and by adding one redundant leg to the GSC. The results of
the fault tolerant control are presented and discussed to validate the proposed
approach under different scenarios and different solar irradiances.

also used to generate the PWM signal for the SEPIC converter.

Electric vehicle (EV) has gained incredible interest from the past two decade
as one of the hopeful greenhouse gasses solution. The number of Electric
Vehicle (EV) is increasing around the world; hence that making EVs user
friendly becomes more important. The main challenge in usage of EV is the
charging time required for the batteries used in EV. As a consequence, this
subject matter has been researched in many credentials where a wide range
of solutions have been proposed. However those solutions are in nature due
to the complex hardware structure. To provide an unswerving journey
an Android application based charging optimization is proposed.
This application is aimed at giving relevant information about the EV’s
battery state of charge (SOC), accurate location of the EV, booking of the
charging slots using token system and route planner. At emergency
situations, an alternative service is provided by mobile charging stations.
Route planner indicates the temperature by which prediction of reaching the
destination can be done. In addition to that nearest places such as parks,
motels are indicated. The estimated time and distance between the electric
vehicle and the charging station is calculated by the charging station server
according to which the parking lot is allocated. Vehicle to charging station
communication is established for the time estimation of charging. This will
help the EV users to know about charge status and charging station, which
support fast charging method and availability of the station on the go
and also when to charge their EV. The Arduino UNO board has been used
for the hardware part. The hardware results are confirming the conceptual of
the proposed work.

doubler rectifier and a snubber circuit. TIBC is designed to drive the three
phase induction motor from PV energy. TIBC converter is also known as
current fed multi resonant converter having high voltage gain and low input
current ripple. Converter switches are controlled through hysteresis controller
and ZCS resonant topologies. Solar PV power fluctuates according to

trigger the IGBT’s in the inverter. The development is oriented to achieve a
more efficient, reliable, maintenance free and cheaper solution than the
standard ones, that uses DC motors or low voltage synchronous motors.

Single-Phase Multilevel Inverter with Simpler Basic Unit Cells for Photovolta...IAES-IJPEDS
This paper presents a single-phase multilevel inverter (MLI) with simpler
basic unit cells. The proposed MLI is able to operate in two modes, i.e.
charge mode to charge the batteries, and inverter mode to supply AC power
to load, and therefore, it is inherently suitable for photovoltaic (PV) power
generation applications. The proposed MLI requires lower number of power
MOSFETs and gate driver units, which will translate into higher cost saving
and better system reliability. The power MOSFETs in the basic unit cells
and H-bridge module are switched at near fundamental frequency, i.e. 100
Hz and 50 Hz, respectively, resulting in lower switching losses. For low total
harmonic distortion (THD) operation, a deep scanning method is employed
to calculate the switching angles of the MLI. The lowest THD obtained is
8.91% at modulation index of 0.82. The performance of the proposed MLI
(9-level) has been simulated and evaluated experimentally. The simulation
and experimental results are in good agreement and this confirms that the
proposed MLI is able to produce an AC output voltage with low THD.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

and current–voltage curves of the PV array. This operating point may be at any point on the curve which can
be either near the maximum power point (MPP) or far away. A significant amount of the available solar
power will be wasted if the operating point lies far away from the MPP [10-12].
The intersection of load characteristics and source characteristics determines operating point in an
electrical system. The characteristic curve for a solar PV system which is connected to different resistive load
is shown in Figure 1. The system operates at Q1 if the value of resistance is low say R1. The operating point
moves to Q2 if the resistance is increased to R2 and then to Q3 as the resistance is further increased to
R3.Maximum power can be extracted from the PV system for load resistance of R2. Maximum power can be
extracted from PV system if the load can adjust itself to track maximum power point. The I-V characteristic
of a solar PV system keeps on changing with temperature and solar insolation. Maximum power can be
received from PV system if the load adjust itself accordingly to track the maximum power point. A MPPT
which is a high efficiency DC-DC converter which converts the power to a voltage or current level at which
MPP is achieved [13].
MPP techniques are used to optimize the power from PV array which depend upon cell temperature,
solar insolation and load. A number of maximum power points tracking (MPPT) methods have been
developed. Dynamic response, steady state response, sensed parameters, implementation complexity,
convergence speed, required number of sensors, and cost. This paper presents a PI based constant voltage
method MPPT method in which a pilot panel is used to measure the reference voltage. Simulink model of
directly coupled and MPPT connected PMDC motor is made and the efficiency is shown to increase under
varying atmospheric condition
2. MAXIMUM POWER POINT TECHNIQUE
A MPPT which is a high efficiency DC-DC converter converts the power to a voltage or current
level at which MPP is achieved. This is done by an intelligent algorithm. Maximum Power Point Tracking is
an electronic system which makes the Photovoltaic (PV) modules to operate in such a way so as to allow the
modules to produce all the power they are capable of. MPPT does not involve physically moving the panel to
make them point directly at the sun. The maximum power available is delivered to the load by a fully
electronic system that varies the electrical operating point of the modules. MPPT can be used in along with a
mechanical tracking system, but the two systems are entirely different. There are many algorithms available
in the literature. Among these algorithm the most common being Perturb and Observe, Incremental
Conductance, Constant Voltage method.
2.1. Constant Voltage Method
This method gives fastest response as it does not involve perturbation. It is the simplest method
among all and has no oscillation around MPP. It works on the basis that ratio of solar panel voltage at
maximum power (Vmpp) and its open circuit voltage (Voc) is a constant
Vmpp/Voc =K (8)
There are basically two types of constant voltage technique available in the literature. In one method
we isolate the solar panel to calculate VOC, then by using equation (8) correct operating point is calculated for
a particular value of K whose value depend upon the material of solar cell. Then the array voltage is adjusted
till VMPP is reached. The drawback of this method is it is difficult to choose optimal value of K which varies
in the range of (73-80) %. Its efficiency is relatively low. The main disadvantage of above method is to
calculate Voc, the panel has to be disconnected which leads to momentary power loss.
The duration between two consecutive sampling time is another challenges of the voltage based
MPPT. Sample and hold circuits are used to store Vref. If the sampling period is large, hold capacitor will
drop [14] and Vref will change leading to energy loss. Moreover if sampling period is large between two
sampling intervals, change in atmospheric condition such as temperature or solar insolation will shift MPP,
which will again result in loss of energy.
The other method of constant voltage method is the use of pilot panel to calculate open circuit
voltage. In order to eliminate above disadvantages [15] suggested use of pilot panel of similar characteristic.
Hence the problem of disconnecting PV panel is removed. The characteristic of main PV panel and pilot PV
panel may not be similar though of same rating may lead to wrong MPP. A need of extra pilot panel will also
increase the cost and space requirement. As shown in Figure 2, a pilot solar panel of same characteristic as
that of main solar panel is used to calculate VOC, which eliminate the loss of PV power during VOC
measurement as in previous method of constant voltage. The drawback of this method is that it is costlier as
an extra pilot panel is being used. Multi Level Inverter is used for integration of solar PV to the grid [16].

2.2. Constant Voltage Controlled MPPT Method for PMDC Motor
The reference voltage is taken as a fraction of VOC.VOC is calculated by the pilot panel which
remains open circuited. A PI controller is used to adjust the duty ratio of an MPPT converter in a feedback
control system. Constant voltage MPPT requires only one sensor and can be executed with both analogue and
digital circuits. A small pilot PV panel of similar characteristic as that of main PV panel is used to measure
the open circuit voltage under no load condition. A fraction of the open circuit output voltage of the pilot PV
panel, which corresponds to MPP voltage, is used as the reference voltage. The error signal is passed through
a PI controller which is compared with a high frequency triangular wave and the signal generated is fed to the
gate of GTO switch. The pulse width modulated (PWM) output is used to drive the GTO of a step-down
dc-dc converter. The duty cycle of the converter changes till the PV panel voltage becomes equal to the MPP
voltage.

modules. The different output at different temperatures and for different insolation from 100 mW/cm2

point resulting in poor array efficiency. Thus, array is poorly utilized at low insolation in a directly coupled
system, but for the MPPT connected load the efficiency is seen to increase.

The simulation was carried out for temperature ranging from 200
C to 300
C and for solar insolation
100mW/cm2
to 30mW/cm2
. Figure 3 and Figure 4 shows variation of array efficiency with solar insolation
and temperature without MPPT and with MPPT respectively. At solar insolation of 100 mW/cm2
the array
power is 1591 watts, whereas at 30 mW/cm2
the array power is 392 watts only. The efficiency is in the range
95%-82% for solar insolation 100 W/m2
to 45 W/m2
and in the range of 75% -43% for solar insolation
40 W/m2
to 30 W/m2
for a directly connected system. The efficiency is seen to increase after MPPT is
implemented and is in the range 99%-82% for solar insolation 100 W/m2
to 45 W/m2
and in the range
of 80% -54% for solar insolation 40 W/m2
to 30 W/m2
for a MPPT connected system.
The simulation result of directly coupled PMDC motor is shown in Figure 5 and Figure 7. It shows
variation of input load power with solar insolation (MPPT) at T= 300
C and T= 220
C.For T=300
C and solar
insolation of 100 mW/cm2
the input power to PMDC motor is about 1525 watts, whereas at 35 mW/cm2
the
load power is about 319.3 watts only. Figure 6 and Figure 8 shows variation of array power with solar
insolation (MPPT) at T= 300
C and T= 220
C. For T=300
C and solar insolation of 100 mW/cm2
the array
power increases to 1555 watts, whereas at 35 W/m2
the array power increases to 372.2 watt.
Hence it can be seen from the above figures that the power decreases with decrease in the insolation
level as well as with an increase in the temperature. The efficiency of the improved constant voltage method
was found to increase in all the cases of insolation.

4. CONCLUSION
The power can be maximized from a PV panel by interfacing an MPPT. The MPPT adjust the PV
panel voltage to reference voltage. In this paper, directly coupled PMDC motor with PV panel and MPPT
connected PMDC motor model has been simulated. An analysis of constant voltage algorithm was done. The
effect of isolation and temperature on system behavior is examined and the utilization is calculated under
varying atmospheric condition. The MPP tracking system uses constant voltage algorithm in which reference
voltage is calculated with the help of pilot panel. The simulation result shows that MPP is tracked under
changing isolation conditions. The results were taken at different values of temperature and solar insolation
and a graph has been plotted to show the behavior of the system at varying conditions. The findings/results
presented in the paper will help in the effective utilization of solar energy resources, especially in
remote/isolated area where PMDC motor can be used for water pumping for irrigating the agricultural fields.
