Abstract

The water shortage becomes a serious problem for several countries especially in remote and rural areas. This paper introduces a single-stage solar water pumping system (SWPS) based on witched reluctance motor (SRM). The SRM features low manufacturing cost, simple and rugged structure, high power density, fault tolerant, and flexible control. This paper presents an improved control strategy to improve the efficiency and reliability of SWPS; the proposed control provides maximum power point tracking (MPPT) from PV arrays while providing an improved performance for SRM with optimized firing angles considering the average torque control strategy; The simulation results revealed the superiority of proposed system technically and economically.
