     HEAD OF THE DEPT : Mr.S PAVAN KUMAR(HOD)
    Aim of this project:
     The main objective of our project is to Design and
    Fabricate a Solar Water Pump so that it can be used by
    farmers and general public for the purpose of
    irrigation or domestic use at affordable cost.
     Solar energy is available in abundance and free of cost
    so it can be used to power the water pumps which were
    previously used to run on electricity generated in coal
    plants. By using this solar powered pump we can
    reduce the usage of power generated from traditional
    coal plants and move a step ahead towards renewable
    energy.
    PROJECT REVIEW ON
    SOLAR POWERED PUMP
     INTRODUCTION :

     SOLAR POWRED PUMP runs on electricity generated by


    photovoltaic panels or the radiated thermal energy
    available from collected sunlight as opposed to grid
    electricity or diesel run water pumps. The operation of
    solar powered pumps is more economical mainly due to the
    lower operation and maintenance costs and has less
    environmental impact than pumps powered by an internal
    combustion engine (ICE). Solar pumps are useful where
    grid electricity is unavailable and alternative sources (in
    particular wind) do not provide sufficient energy.
    MAIN COMPONENETS USED
    IN THE PROJECT
    A photovoltaic solar powered pump system has three
    parts:
     Solar panels.
     The controller
     The pump
    The solar panels make up most (up to 80%) of the
    systems cost. The size of the PV-system is directly
    dependent on the size of the pump, the amount of water
    that is required (m³/d) and the solar irradiance available.
    The Pump:
     The Direct current motors are used for small to medium applications up to
    about 4 kW rating, and are suitable for applications such as garden fountains,
    landscaping, drinking water for livestock, or small irrigation projects. Since DC
    systems tend to have overall higher efficiency levels than AC pumps of a similar
    size, the costs are reduced as smaller solar panels can be used
    Solar panel :
    Solar panel is the main component of the project as it the main

    source of the power to the pump.

    Applications :
     Irrigation : It can be used in drip irrigation, micro
    irrigation, lift irrigation and agriculture water supply.
     It can be used for domestic purposes to fill over head
    tanks
     It can be used distillation of water .
     Pond water management and water transfer
     It can be used to drain out the water from cellars and
    houses in case of excessive rains

    Advantages of this project:
     Solar water pump operate anywhere the sun shines
     System productivity increases in summer when water
    requirement is usually greater
     Require minimal service and maintenance
     Powered by clean, renewable energy
     Virtually free to operate, compared to the cost of
    diesel-powered generators and grid electricity which is
    constantly increasing
     Easily relocated to meet seasonal or variable location
    needs
