INTRODUCTION Now a day’s people are more concerned about the application of the renewable energy source, like wind, tidal, biomass, ocean and solar radiation (photovoltaic) because of the raising oil prices, fossil fuel deficit, global warming and negative impact of environment. Among all the renewable energy sources the energy through photovoltaic (PV) can be most
The PV module has been designed by considering the irradiance, temperature and number of PV cells connected in series and parallel. Figure 5.1 shows the simulink model of solar system. Here only function file used to show the solar system, the program code is given in the appendix. Here we are using a battery. The system is generated 240volt and current is 2.9 A.
Fig.3. shows algorithm for the proposed method. This algorithm uses voltage and current of the PV module. A permitted error of 0.06 as shown in (8) is used in modified algorithm to eliminate the steady state oscillation in the system. The permitted error is written as I + V dI/dV 0.06 Using the permitted error of 0.06, the steady state error is approximately 0.7% based on the duty cycle step size of 0.005.
The simulation study of the complete system is carried out by using MATLAB/SIMULINK. For this simulation, four PV module in a series connection mode is considered. Each PV module consists of three submodules. A multiwinding flyback converter is connected across each PV module. Fig. 7(a) shows the P-V charactristc cunve of the PV array (with bypass diode) without using the integrated converter. The figure shows multiple power peaks with maximum power nearly 500W. The shading pattern of the PV array is presented in Table-1. Fig. 7(b) shows the characteristic curve by integrating the converter across each PV module. The P-V characteristic curve exhibits a single peak point. The peak power is nearly 670W. As compared to conventional PV system more than 150W power can be extracted from the PV system. Each submodule of the PV module is subjected different solar insolation. Fig. 8(a ) shows the current of submodule of PV module-1. In this figure, submodule-3 generates less power as
The experiments analyzed found that solar panels using the concepts analyzed converted no more than 5% of absorbed energy into electricity. The tested organic cell film had 1.5-2% ef-ficiency, though organic cells are inefficient but cheap anyway. Carbon cells were estimated to have no more than 5% efficiency. Experimental data found cells sensitized with dye and TiO2 achieve 4-4.5% efficiency if constructed correctly. Each US square meter gets about 1-2 thou-sand kilowatt-hours sunlight per year, which means the maximum power from a solar panel is about 110 kilowatt-hours per square meter per year. Since
Abstract- This paper presents a thorough comparative analysis study for various kinds of single diode models based photovoltaic power source. The main target behind the paper is to explore the effect of increasing the embedded degree of complexity of the single diode model on the simulated behavior of a particular PV module by comparing the dynamic performance of such kind of PV models with the experimental data from manufacturer 's data sheet under varying the atmospheric conditions. The relative errors between each PV single diode model output and the experimentally validated data are computed at three indicative points namely open circuit voltage, short circuit current and maximum power point. The result of this comparison leads to determining the best PV single diode module - that is more suitable than the others in the context of single diode model - to be applied in different power system application irrespective of changing the environmental conditions along over different periods of the day. The comparison study in this paper ends up with determining the relevant single diode model at low, medium and high temperature and irradiance level as well as at standard test conditions.
This method has three major 47 disadvantages: Firstly tracking local peaks of the solar array voltage-power curve, secondly 48 oscillations around the MPP and thirdly low speed[1,6,11,13-14]. The DC-DC converter deliver the 49 maximum power from PV module to load by adjusting the duty cycle and able to distribute a maximum 50 power when load is changes [1,6,11,13-15]. The proposed method is a maximum power coefficient 51 UNDER PEER REVIEW
The growing concern about the impact of CO2 and the anxiety on the effect of using fossil fuels based power generation technology on the environment, in recent years, has made the researchers to focusing on the renewable energy based clean power generation techniques to secure the environment from carbon effect. Among the development of renewable energy based power generation techniques, the solar power generation has a major role in clean power generation. The sunlight is free of cost and everlasting energy sources, but the drawback of this method is that generation of electricity is only possible during the sunshine. In PV system, the DC-DC power converters are used to change the output voltage from one level to another level [25-27]. Typically, the DC-DC converter is connected between the panel and the load, sequentially to extract the available power from the panel using tracking methods. In this work, Boost converters and Super lift boost converters [1] are used to extract the maximum power from the panel and two converters diagram is shown in Figure 1a and Figure 1b respectively.
Nowadays, renewable energy resources play an important role in replacing conventional fossil fuel energy resources. Photovoltaic energy is one of the very promising renewable energy resources which grew rapidly in the past few years. Photovoltaics has one major problem and which is that with the variation of the operating conditions of the array, the voltage at which maximum power can be obtained from it also changes. In the thesis, a PV model is used to simulate actual PV arrays behavior, and then a Maximum Power Point tracking method and wind energy system using Feed Forward Neural networks is proposed in order to control the power. Further more,the proposed feed forward neural network technique using hybrid system is compared with the ANFIS(adaptive neuro fuzzy interference system). Simulation results shows that the proposed feed forward neural network maximum power point tracking method gives faster response than the ANFIS

Abstract—In today’s fast growing world with lots of technological developments we are suffering from many problems among which energy crisis is the most significant one. With the limited amount of conventional sources of energy like coal, petroleum, natural gas available which creates a lot of pollution too, we are in a great danger of complete depletion of these resources. As an alternative solar energy has a huge potential to meet the ever growing demands of human race. Solar cells are used to convert sun’s energy into electrical energy. Solar panels are group of solar cells but solar cells in itself are not very efficient, therefore to increase their efficiency solar tracking system is used to track the direction of sun. In this paper we have described the design of an automatic solar tracker using microcontroller. We have effectively used photoresistor or light dependent resistor as the sensor of solar tracker and the stepper motor for the movement of solar panel. More energy is produced in solar tracking system because solar array is always in perpendicular direction to sun rays.
Abstract: The current energy situation with fossil fuels as the main source of the world’s energy has two main flaws: fossil fuels contribute to global warming via the greenhouse effect and they are limited in the quantity that remains. Solar power solves both of these problems and can be captured by utilizing photovoltaic cells. However, photovoltaic cells have their own drawbacks due to their high costs of installation and maintenance.
