Abstract | ||||
A detailed developed model for the average radiation calculated by using instantaneous values is introduced. The proposed model can be used to calculate the photovoltaic pumping system performance such as water flow rate, water head, total output power and system efficiency at a given time. An experimental system is established in Egypt Delta region located at latitude of 30.5° north and longitude of 30.3° east. The effect of cell temperature variation is studied. All meteorological data and actual measurements are collected instantaneously and stored. A comparison study between experimental and simulation results is given. Also the average water discharge predicted has been compared with the experimental values. It is found that the difference between the simulation results and the experimental is less than 5% this ensures that the proposed system is designed in high accuracy. | ||||
