Investigation on Solar PV generation and design of switched reluctance motor for Smart Agriculture actuation system

Abstract

This paper presents standalone solar photovoltaic (PV) powered fed actuation system employing a switched reluctance motor (SRM) particularly used in remote and rural areas. The converter efficiency is achieved by changing ON and OFF state of solar PV drive. An electronic commutation drives SRM drive with achieved by position hall sensor and encoder. The modified boost converter is proposed in single stage to conversion of PV fed power and inverter with reduced switching losses. Further proposed system is designed to reduce cost of system using simple design and control. This paper also proposes the speed control strategy of SRM motor with an artificial intelligent based Adaptive neuro fuzzy inference (ANFIS) system to achieve desired motor velocity as stated in reference velocity in farm lands. The system proposed is subjected to analysis the performance of drive and controller in both load and no-load conditions. Initially, a simulation model is modeled in MATLAB-SIMULINK with corresponding environments. The experimental setup for proposed system is developed using FPGA based SPEEDGOAT real time target machine. The simulation and hardware results suggest feasibility of proposed system in real time.

Optimization and Validation of Model Predictive Controller (MPC) Approach for Wind Turbine Energy System in Domestic Loads

“…The automatic actuation control system used in fins and gliders to maintain constant torque performance for various dynamic loads and thermal object loads [3][4]. The drive system for a BLDC generator on current control techniques using PWM signals [5][6]. Further the development of the position and speed control for various applications between the controllers, conventional PID is the most popular controller in practice has poor dynamic behavior for non-linear loads in real-time applications.…”
