This paper presents a pumping system supplied by a PV generator that is based on a switched reluctance machine (SRM). Water pumping systems are fundamental in many applications. Most of them can be used only during the day; therefore, they are highly recommended for use with PV generators. For the interface between the PV panels and the motor, a new multilevel converter is proposed. This converter is designed in order to ensure fault-tolerant capability for open switch faults. The converter is based on two three-level inverters, with some extra switches. Moreover, to reduce the number of switches, the converter is designed to provide inverse currents in the motor windings. Due to the characteristics of this motor, the inverse currents do not change the torque direction. In this way, it was possible to obtain an SRM drive with fault-tolerant capability for transistor faults; it is also a low-cost solution, due to the reduced number of switches and drives. These characteristics of fault-tolerant capability and low cost are important in applications such as water pumping systems supplied by PV generators. The proposed system was verified by several tests that were carried out by a simulation program. The experimental results, obtained from a laboratory prototype, are also presented, with the purpose of validating the simulation tests.

This work deals with the development of an efficient and reliable solar photovoltaic-fed water pump with a battery energy storage (BES). This system ensures a continuous and rated supply of water in all working conditions. A new control logic for BES is developed, which significantly improves the overall response of the system. The support of the battery as a backup source is obtained through a bidirectional DC-DC converter. Both the charging/discharging control and maximum power tracking of the solar panel are achieved through this bidirectional converter, whereas the voltage asymmetry compensation across split capacitors at DC link and motor drive controls are supervised by switched reluctance motor converter. The performance of the present scheme is examined through both simulated and experimental responses and is found adequate under all operational scenarios. 1 INTRODUCTION Among the recent renewable power sources, photovoltaic (PV) array power is often a best source and available in an endless sum [1]. The primary advantages of solar-dependent power stage incorporate clean, contamination-free, brief time establishment, and long-life operation. Some of the basic limitations of the solar system like its expensiveness, lower conversion ratio, and intermittency in solar power have been successfully overcome in recent times through advancements in solar technologies [2, 3]. Therefore, solar-powered water pumps are the most efficient way to utilise the available abundant solar power [4, 5]. Innumerable research has been carried out to develop an efficient solar-powered water pumping system (SPWPS) using various electric motor drives [4-7]. Due to the critical nature of water pumping application, there exists a need to utilise a robust, highly reliable, cost-effective, high starting torque and efficient motor drive. Since the switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive has all these required characteristics, it is emerging as one of the prominent drives for water pumping system (WPS) [8-10]. Nevertheless, various positive aspects of solar-powered systems are there; however, one major drawback of it is the This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.

The use of power electronic converters is essential for the operation of Switched Reluctance Machines (SRMs). Many topologies and structures have been developed over the last years considering several specific applications for this kind of machine, improving the control strategies, performance range, fault-tolerant operation, among other aspects. Thus, due to the great importance of power electronic converters in such applications, this paper is focused on a detailed review of main structures and topologies for SRM drives. The proposed study is not limited to the classic two-level power converters topologies dedicated to the SRMs; it also presents a review about recent approaches, such as multilevel topologies and based on impedance source network. Moreover, this review is also focused on a new class of topologies associated to these machines, namely the ones with fault-tolerant capability. This new category of topologies has been a topic of research in recent years, being currently considered an area of great interest for future research work. An analysis, taking into consideration the main features of each structure and topology, was addressed in this review. A classification and comparison of the several structures and topologies for each kind of converter, considering modularity, boost capability, number of necessary switches and phases, integration in the machine design, control complexity, available voltage levels and fault-tolerant capability to different failure modes, is also presented. In this way, this review also includes a description of the presented solutions taking into consideration the reliability of the SRM drive.
