Abstract

This paper represents an electrical modeling of a photovoltaic water pumping system composed of photovoltaic panels. The system reassures electrical energy generation applying a DC buck converter in order to supply a DC motor to pump water. Known for its optimal electrical and physical properties, the super capacitor is integrated into the PV pumping system to allow storing electrical energy and powering the pumping motor at nights and cloudy days. The implementation of the perturbation and observation algorithm in the DC buck converter reassures the system’s operation around the maximum power point produced by the photovoltaic panel. Moving from quantity problem to quality problem, several internal and external factors can infect the stability of the PV pumping system and disrupt its operation around nominal point. On account of this, a pole placement technique is proposed in this paper. This technique is advocated not only for its simple processing and rapid execution, but also for being based on the conversion of the electrical model of the PV pumping system into a mathematical model that comprises matrix equations. This energy conversion process allows variations in output values in proportion to the input evolution along with positioning the system’s poles in the stable points of the S-plane. The equation of this technique applied to the photovoltaic pumping system is indicated in this paper having its program created in Matlab and installed in PLC S7-200 on account of its ability to monitor the inputs instantaneously and modify the outputs in a way proportional to the installed program. Subsequently, the validation of the robustness of this technique is reassured by the comparison between the simulation in Matlab and the experimental tests carried out in sunny periods having the engine powered by photovoltaic panels, and shaded periods where power supply is reassured by the super capacitor.
