Abstract
his thesis delves into the study and sizing of a photovoltaic pumping station tailored
for the irrigation needs of an isolated agricultural farm. The investigation begins with an
analysis of energy requirements for irrigation and the potential advantages of harnessing solar
energy for water pumping. Various components of the photovoltaic pumping system,
including solar panels, inverters, and pumps, are scrutinized and selected based on their
efficiency and suitability for the agricultural setting.
In addition, the study highlights the integration of Arduino Mega, powered by
photovoltaic energy, into the system to regulate and control the pumping operations
efficiently. This innovative approach enhances the automation and optimization of the
irrigation process, contributing to improved water management and energy utilization on the
farm.
Furthermore, a comprehensive sizing methodology is developed to determine the
optimal configuration of the photovoltaic pumping station, taking into account factors such as
water demand, solar irradiation, pump characteristics, and system losses. Practical
considerations such as installation, maintenance, and monitoring of the system are also
addressed, along with potential challenges and solutions during implementation.
Overall, this thesis offers valuable insights into the study and sizing of photovoltaic
pumping stations for agricultural applications, showcasing the integration of innovative
technologies like Arduino Mega powered by photovoltaic energy to create efficient and
sustainable irrigation systems for isolated agricultural farms
