This paper deals with the problem of the optimization of the power, delivered by the photovoltaic panel (PVP). To achieve this aim, a neuro-fuzzy estimator (NFE), followed by a conversion coefficient and a calculation stage of the optimal duty cycle, has been developed. The NFE is used to calculate the open circuit voltage corresponding to each solar radiation, based only on the standard open circuit voltage. A coefficient, determining for each climatic condition the voltage of the maximum power directly from the open circuit voltage, is estimated by a measured test. Finally, the optimal duty cycles, next, determined by the input/output equation of boost converter. The system performance, under different scenarios, has been checked carrying out MATLAB simulations, using an existing photovoltaic model and real weather data, and comparing the simulation results with the measured one. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the present approach. The efficiency of the proposal maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is proved and it showed that this controller can generate almost 99% of the real PVP maximum power.

This paper proposes two new Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) methods which improve the conventional Fractional Open Circuit Voltage (FOCV) method. The main novelty is a switched semi-pilot cell that is used for measuring the open-circuit voltage. In the first method this voltage is measured on the semi-pilot cell located at the edge of PV panel. During the measurement the semi-pilot cell is disconnected from the panel by a pair of transistors, and bypassed by a diode. In the second Semi-Pilot Panel method the open circuit voltage is measured on a pilot panel in a large PV system. The proposed methods are validated using simulations and experiments. It is shown that both methods can accurately estimate the maximum power point voltage, and hence improve the system efficiency.

This paper proposes a new converter topology for torque ripple reduction in Brushless DC (BLDC) motor. Due to the torque ripple problem, the use of this motor is limited to few applications. In this paper, a Single Input Double Output (SIDO) converter is proposed to suppress the torque ripple in BLDC motor. The proposed SIDO converter provides two output voltages. One for supplying the motor throughout conduction time and second output voltage is given to the non-commutating phase of motor during commutation instants. This proposed SIDO converter is fed from Photo Voltaic (PV) system. This paper also presents a new Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) based on trisection of Power-Voltage characteristics (TPVC) to attain the maximum power from the PV system. This scheme takes only 7 iterations to reach MPP. The intended configuration is developed and simulated in Matlab/Simulink environment. The results justify the superiority of proposed scheme that minimizes torque ripple in BLDC motor to only 6 to 12% from 50 to 80 % in conventional scheme and also extracts maximum power from PV system. ©2019.

In this paper a new approach for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is proposed. The fractional open circuit voltage based MPPT states that the photovoltaic (PV) array voltage corresponding to the maximum power gives a linear dependence with respect to array open circuit voltage for different irradiation and temperature levels. This method is the easiest and simplest of all the MPPT methods but the disconnection of the PV array from the load on regular intervals for the sampling of the array voltage causes significant power loss. A new and simple approach is proposed by the simple linear equation of line for calculating the duty cycle of the boost converter which will extract the maximum power for the particular radiations. This topology can also be used for Wind energy systems but here the simulation is done with solar photovoltaic only. The proposed work is verified using MATLAB/SIMULNK and simulation results shows a clear improvement in achieving the desired results.
