Abstract
This paper presents design, development and control of solar photovoltaic (SPV) supply system for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) driven pump load. The proposed system is very effective in curtailing power demand on existing grid supply on highly dense population areas. An incremental conductance method followed by sliding mode control scheme is used to track SPV array maximum power point (MPP) and vary the speed of the PMSM accordingly under the change in atmospheric conditions. The direct torque control (DTC), voltage source inverter (VSI) is employed to control the PMSM speed and to achieve stable operating point. A prototype of single stage SPV supply-based PMSM coupled with DC machine is developed in laboratory for emulating the centrifugal pump characteristics. Performances under different environmental and operating conditions are obtained on the developed prototype to prove the efficacy of the proposed control.
