Abstract
The Maximum-Power Point Tracking (MPPT) techniques are implemented in PV
systems to utilize the full available PV-output power. Such an output power heavily
depends on the weather variant conditions.
In this research, the Incremental Conductance (IC) MPPT algorithm is implemented
to drive a boost dc/dc converter whose output dc voltage is input to a three-phase
inverter. The inverter drives a three-phase induction motor.
This research aims, to maintain the output speed and torque for induction motor,
irrespective of changes in irradiance and temperature. Change in irradiance causes the
change of output voltage from the PV panel, which causes the duty cycle (D) to vary.
The duty cycle depends on both the output voltage from the PV module and the
reference voltage. The applied speed controller was also able to control the speed, albeit
with the changing weather conditions.
The described system was simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK and also
experimentally using the DSP-DS1104 digital board. Field-oriented control (FOC) has
been applied to control the induction motor’s current, speed, and torque. The results
confirm that the IC algorithm accurately tracks the maximum power in various
operational conditions with varying irradiance levels and temperatures.
The educational objective of this research is to prepare a training program based on
constructive education, to develop the concepts and skills of graduates of the faculty of
Technology and Education - Department of Electrical Technology, and to measure their
effectiveness
