This paper presents the circuitry modeling of the solar photovoltaic MPPT lead-acid battery charge controller for the standalone system in MATLAB/Simulink environment. A buck topology is utilized as a DC-DC converter for the charge controller implementation. The maximum power of the photovoltaic panel is tracked by the Perturb and Observe MPPT algorithm. The battery charge controller charges the lead-acid battery using a three-stage charging strategy. The three charging stages include the MPPT bulk charge, constant voltage absorption charge, and float charge stage. The performance analysis of the model is carried out in the following aspects, there are MPPT tracking performance, battery charging performance and overall charge controller efficiency performance are benchmarked with commercial MPPT charge controller for validation. The performance result shows that the MPPT is capable to track to the PV panel maximum point at any solar irradiance variation within 0.5 seconds with maximum power tracking efficiency up to 99.9 %. The three-stage charging strategy also successfully demonstrated. The overall charge controller average efficiency achieved up to 98.3 % which matches many high end commercial solar PV MPPT charge controller product specifications. This validated model contributes to a better sizing of PV panel and battery energy storage for the small and medium standalone PV system.

There are some weaknesses of using solar PV system especially when there is issue of soiling on the surface of solar PV panel. The consequences for absence of this such study can cause unanticipated cost in the operation of solar PV panel. The objective of this project is to study the trend of soiling rate over different time period and its effect on the performance of solar PV panel in Malaysia and to develop a simple prediction model for cleaning interval of solar PV system in Malaysia. The study was conducted on real-time basis on a building’s roof. Measurements of solar irradiance, voltage, current and the mass of dust collected were performed from both clean and dirty panels. It was discovered that the Monthly Test was significant with 4.53% of performance drop. Further analysis was conducted by running prediction model for cleaning interval. Intersection of graph plotting and fixed cleaning cost gives answer of cleaning interval that can be performed. It can be concluded that for every two and half month is the recommended time interval to perform regular cleaning to maximise electrical power generation by solar PV system in Malaysia.

Power Point

In this paper maximum power point tracker battery charger is proposed for extracting maximum power from a photovoltaic panel to charge the battery. The output power of the PV system continuously varies with change in irradiance and temperature. It is a very important to improve the efficiency of solar panel. There are number of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) methods available to operate the PV system at maximum power point. The proposed system has used perturb & observe (P&O) MPPT algorithm for the design and implementation. And also describes thermoelectric power generation from waste heat from PV panel, utilizing generators that can convert heat energy directly to electrical energy.

Internet Of Medical Things

In order to gather, transmit, and develop input from the patients for monitoring their health condition through smart devices or devices which use embedded systems, such as processors and transducers and equipment for communication in the healthcare system, the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) maintains a huge network infrastructure. These devices therefore comprise of a powerful, scalable, lightweight storage knot, which requires power and batteries to run from a practical standpoint. The above shows that the energy collection plays a significant part in the enhancement of IoMT devices’ efficiency and lifespan for its application in healthcare systems. Moreover, in view of the energy acquisition from the operational environment, energy collection is required to make the IoMT devices network more ecologically sustainable. In large solar PV generating systems, partly shading situations usually develop, causing system losses. Thus, in power-voltage curves characteristic of solar systems, the appearance of several peak levels is conceivable. These kinds of problems can be handled by using new multilayer link inverter monitoring techniques. A Maximum Point Tracking Scheme (MPPT) is being suggested for self-proposed Internet of Medical Things for the purpose of optimizing harvesting of solar power on entire PV chain with the usage of RGWO (Robust Wolf Optimization) dependent PI with PWM. The mistaken PV error might create inconsistent power supply to the 7-level H-bridge inverter linked to a grid. The modulation compensation is included in the control system in order to stabilize the grid power. The suggested technique is applied to a 7-level inverter under partial shade conditions. The multi-level modular H-bridge inverter is used for the grid-linked PV system. In addition to a DC link across all H-bridges, a short PV panel string is used for feeding each phase of n H-bridge converters which is connected in series. For pulse switching inverters, the usage of RGWO-based PI with PWM is used. The PWM is used. Then L filters used to reduce the switch harmonics found in the grid are used to link the Cascade multilevel inverter with the grid. A seven-level threephase inverter with three H-bridges allows the individual MPPT control need. The harvester is under direct sunlight and sometimes overcast circumstances realistically tested outside. The wearable IoMT sensor node uses a mean power of 20, 23 mW in a wake-up mode for one hour, and the node’s service life is 28 hours. The performance analysis is finally performed and MATLAB/SIMULINK simulation is performed.

Implementation of modified AHP coupled with MOORA methods for modeling and optimization of solar photovoltaic (PV)-pumped hydro energy storage (PHS) system parameter is presented in this chapter. Work optimized the parameters, namely unmet energy (UE), size of PV-panel, and volume of upper reservoir (UR), to get economic cost of energy (COE) and excess energy (EE). The trail no.11 produces the highest assessment values compared to the other trails and provides EE as 16.19% and COE as 0.59 $/kWh for PV-PHS. ANOVA and parametric study is also performed to determine the significance of the parameters for PV-PHS performance. Investigation results indicate the effectiveness and significant potential for modeling and optimization of PV-PHS system and other solar energy systems.
