| dc.description | The project was carried out to the Performance evaluation of SPV pump at village level. The energy consumption of India is now soaring and may face severe electricity shortages’ in the near future. From these investigations The overall efficiency of SPV pump increased with the increase in solar intensity and pump output. The overall efficiency of the system in the course of study in April 2017 was found to be 8.74 % with corresponding PV efficiency of 14.88 %. | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | The research work was undertaken on “Performance evaluation of solar photovoltaic pump at village level.” The performance of photovoltaic (PV) array based water pumping system installed at the field farmers of Shubash Lajurkar at village in Amravati Dist. (Maharashtra). The performance of the 5 hp SPV pump was evaluated during 3rd to 30 April 2017.and the results are summarized considering weekly observations viz, 3rd to 9th April 2017, 10th to 16th April 2017, 17th to 23rd April 2017 and 24th to 30th April 2017.The average values of ambient temperature, Panel Temperature, solar intensity, array output, pump discharge, panel efficiency, pump efficiency, overall efficiency are obtained during the week are discussed. During the month maximum panel temperature of 53.86, 53.42, 54.14, 55.71°C was observed during 11.00 to 17.00 h. of the day and solar intensity corresponding to this panel temperature was observed in the range 925.15 to 510.72, 860.14 to 510.37, 860.14 to 510.34, and 860.11 to 750.17 to W/m2.during 11.00 to 17.00 h. of the day. The pump was operated in the ambient temperature range of 35.99 to 36.29, 36.21 to 36.33, and 31.83 to 38.24,33. 19 to 38.16, °C during test run whereas the array output 3364.06. To 2440.3, 3362.13 to 2452.6, 3361.50 to 2452.8, 3360.56 to 2462.2 W was found at 11.00 to 15.00 h. of the day and discharge corresponding to this solar intensity was observed in the range of 4.37 to 4.31, 4.52 to 4.32, 4.49 to 4.27 and 4.52 to 4.36 LPS, respectively. The overall efficiency of system corresponding to solar intensity was observed in the range of 5.81 to 7.17%, 5.89 to 6.89%, 5.97 to 6.88% and 5.97 to 6.86% respectively and it was found that overall efficiency of system increased during 11.00 to 14.00 h. The overall efficiency of SPV pump increased with the increase in solar intensity and pump output. The overall efficiency of SPV pump increased with the increased in solar intensity and pump output. It thus revealed that the peak solar radiation delivered more power to run submersible pump, which increased the pump discharge and the overall efficiency of SPV pump increased with the increase in solar intensity and pump output. The overall efficiency of the system in the course of study in April 2017 was found to be 8.74 % with corresponding PV efficiency of 14.88 %. The estimated cost of the system was Rs, 500000 /- with 20 year payback Period 8 years 2 month, and benefit cost ratio was found as 1.03. It could be inferred that the SPV is technically as well as economically feasible. | en_US |
