Sensorless dual axis solar tracker using improved sun position algorithm Chan Men Loon; Muhamad Zalani Daud

Publisher : Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science

This paper presents development of a prototype sensorless dual axis solar tracker for maximum extraction of solar energy. To prove the concept and evaluate the proposed algorithm, a low cost widely availabe materials were used which was programmed based on Arduino microcontroller. The porposed algorithm works based on two search methods namely the global search that approximates the best point location in a region, and local search that further determines the actual sun’s position. Experimental results showed that the proposed algorithm gives better performance compared to the existing sun position algorithm (SPA) - based method as well as the fixed panel system. In terms of total output power, the proposed algorithm gives 17.96% more efficient than the fixed system and 6.38% better than the SPA-based system. Furthermore, the percentage error of the experimental measured angle to the actual sun azimuth angle was relatively minimal (less than 3%) during clear day operation. The system was proven to be effective in tracking the sun for improved energy production of solar PV panels and the proposed algorithm also can be used for designing the tracker with larger size of solar PV systems.

Accurate battery model parameter identification using heuristic optimization Mohd Afifi Jusoh; Muhamad Zalani Daud

This paper presents an accurate Lithium-ion battery model representation in Matlab/Simulink. The Tremblay's battery model was used as a BES model platform, where the determination of the model parameters was obtained based on heuristic optimization approach. This approach is simple but more accurate compared to the conventional method. In the classical method, it requires the user to manually select the battery model parameters from relevant points on the manufacturer discharge curves. However, this way of battery parameters extraction normally exposed to the human error and would easily result in an inaccurate selection of battery parameters for the BES simulation studies. Therefore, an easy and accurate approach using heuristic optimization for determining battery model parameters was introduced. The simulation studies utilized three different optimization algorithms for comparison purposes, i.e. 1) Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), 2) Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA), and 3) Genetic Algorithm (GA). The performance of BES model discharge accuracy with respect to the test data from three different algorithms was compared and the results showed that the GA approach gives the best results in terms of accuracy and execution time. Finally, the validated results of GA-optimized battery model showed the accuracy of 98% compared to the conventional approach.

A grid-connected photovoltaic (GCPV) system plays an important role in the development of green technology. However, generated photovoltaic (PV) power that is injected into the grid causes instability in the grid system. Previous studies have shown that power quality for a three-phase system is thoroughly being discussed, but not for a single-phase system. Single-phase system also contribute to instability in low-voltage grid networks during high power penetration as majority of the single-phase GCPV nowadays are installed on rooftops. Thus, in this study, the power quality of a single-phase single-stage GCPV system is investigated based on the total harmonic distortion (THD), power factor (PF), and the generated active (P) and reactive (Q) power during different solar irradiance and varying loads conditions. A model of the GCPV system was developed in MATLAB/Simulink, so that certain variables can be varied to observe their effect towards the power quality. The results show that the current and voltage of generated PV power are synchronized and having low current THD which is less than 1% for all cases. PF values are also in the acceptable range in compliance to IEC 61727 standard which is 0.9971, and the generated PQ is in accordance to the connected load.

The performance of solar panels greatly determines the electrical energy production of a solar power generation system. The decrease in performance has an impact on efficiency, output power, output voltage and current. Currently, at Universitas Pamulang a solar photovoltaic system (PV) is installed with a capacity of 2.56 kWp since 2018. However, no performance test and analysis have been conducted to determine its level of efficiency and reliability. This paper presents an experimental method used for performance testing of a 320 W mono-crystalline solar panel, measuring from 08.00 AM to 4.00 PM, using the solar survey 200R to measure solar irradiation, ambient and cell temperature. A digital multimeter CD800a was used to measure Voc and a PV200 tester used to measure voltage and current output. The results revealed that at an ambient temperature of 38°C and cell temperature 50.9°C, the intensity of solar radiation was 702.7 W/m2 and output voltage of 42.9 V with a performance of 78.37% and an efficiency of 27.73% was due to an increase cell temperature. Low-efficiency values with high cell temperatures indicate that this system requires an external solar panel cooling system.
