Efficiency improvement in standalone solar PV water pumping system by pulsating pump operation based on intermediate supercapacitor buffer by Yurii Biletskyi, Ihor Shchur

“…The conducted simulation studies on the developed model in the SimScape multiphysical library of the Matlab/Simulink environment shows that such a direct driven SPVWPS is characterized by a very low overall efficiency, and its operating range of solar irradiance starts from only 450 W/m2. Taking into account that the water pumping process itself is an accumulation of energy, this work proposes applying a pulsating mode of pump operation with nominal power in each pulse enabled by the introduction of an intermediate supercapacitor buffer. …”
