Experimental study of a PV water pumping system

Abstract EN

In this paper, we present different performances of a photovoltaic (PV) water pumping system.

A prototype of experimental bench in installed in the laboratory of industrial technology and information (LTII).

We present a model to characterize the motor-pump subsystem used in PV pumping installations.

The model expresses the water flow output (Q) directly as a function of the electrical power input (P) to the motor-pump, for different total heads.

The obtained experimental results illustrated by curves are represented and analyzed.
