Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is used in photovoltaic (PV) systems to maximize its output power. A new MPPT system has been suggested for PV–DC motor pump system by designing two PI controllers. The first one is used to reach MPPT by monitoring the voltage and current of the PV array and adjusting the duty cycle of the DC/DC converter. The second PI controller is designed for speed control of DC series motor by setting the voltage fed to the DC series motor through another DC/DC converter. The suggested design problem of MPPT and speed controller is formulated as an optimization task which is solved by artificial bee colony (ABC) to search for optimal parameters of PI controllers. Simulation results have shown the validity of the developed technique in delivering MPPT to DC series motor pump system under atmospheric conditions and tracking the reference speed of motor. Moreover, the performance of the ABC algorithm is compared with genetic algorithm for various disturbances to prove its robustness.
相似文献This paper proposes a speed control of switched reluctance motor supplied by photovoltaic system. The proposed design of the speed controller is formulated as an optimization problem. Ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm is employed to search for the optimal proportional integral (PI) parameters of the proposed controller by minimizing the time domain objective function. The behavior of the proposed ACO has been estimated with the behavior of genetic algorithm (GA) in order to prove the superior efficiency of the proposed ACO in tuning PI controller over GA. Also, the behavior of the proposed controller has been estimated with respect to the change of load torque, variable reference speed, ambient temperature and radiation. Simulation results confirm the better behavior of the optimized PI controller based on ACO compared with optimized PI controller based on GA over a wide range of operating conditions.
