This paper presents dc photovoltaic pumping system. The system consists of photovoltaic (PV) generator, boost converter and permanent magnet (PM) dc motor-pump set. Each part of the system is modelled. Photovoltaic generator parameters are extracted based on data-sheet parameters. Boost converter is designed to operate in continuous conduction mode (CCM) and controlled using incremental conductance (IC) algorithm for maximum power point tracking (MPPT).The system is simulated using Matlab/Simulink. The proposed system is studied under direct coupling and maximum power point tracking conditions. The results show a very good performance MPPT compared with direct coupling. The system is tested under varying conditions of temperature and radiation.

Abstract - This paper presents parameters determination of photovoltaic (PV) module based on data-sheet parameters using Newton-Raphson iterative method. The characteristic of photovoltaic module are drawn based on the extracted parameters. Simulation and maximum power point tracking (MPPT) are developed using Matlab/Simulink. Incremental conductance (INC) method for MPPT is used to control a dc-dc boost converter with resistive load. Parameters of boost converter are designed to operate in continuous conduction mode. State- space averaging technique is used to control standalone PV module and obtain inductance value for certain amount of ripple in boost inductor current at different temperature and irradiance conditions.
