In this article our objective is to obtain steady state characteristics of shunt, series, and separately excited DC motors coupled with a centrifugal water pump supplied through a step-up, step-down, and cuk converter from photovoltaic generator. We assume that there are no storage batteries and, of course, the system must operate on maximum utilization i.e. maximum water must be pumped. It is ...

This paper offers an alternative technique, namely, Improved Electronic Load Controller (IELC), which is proposal to improve power quality, maintaining voltage at frequency desired level for rural electrification. The design and development of IELC are considered as microhydroenergy system. The proposed work aims to concentrate on the new schemes for rural electrification with the help of diffe...

For isolated applications, the 3self-excited induction generator driven by wind energy source is more suitable, where the minimum excitation capacitance required for self-excitation of 3induction generator is taken up in this work and the detailed analysis is carried out to determine the range of wind speed variation and consumer demand for the designed capacitance value. An electronic load con...

This paper describes the mathematical modelling of selfexcited induction generators (SEIGs) with are improved electronic load controller (IELC) for microhydel applications supplying variety of loads. In small hydro plants, governor unit of turbine can be eliminated using IELC, which is simple and cost effective. The improved electronic load controller is a combination of a three-phase insulated...
