Application of fuzzy logic on a PV water pumping system

摘要

This paper represent a design and simulation of a simple photovoltaic water pumping system that employs the maximum power point tracker (MPPT), a DC-DC boost converter and a DC pump motor. The main goal of this paper is to prove that fuzzy logic controller whether the fuzzy PI or the fuzzy PID is the most effective to track the maximum power by comparing it to the most used MPPT algorithm Perturb & Observe (P&O).
