Photovoltaic direct drive water-saving irrigation system and its optimization design method

Abstract

Photovoltaic irrigation has been widely used in many areas without conventional energy sources. In order to solve the problem of unstable operation and poor irrigation uniformity caused by the diurnal variation of solar radiation, a photovoltaic direct-drive water-saving irrigation system with automatic regulation was proposed. By using automatic control technology and the method of zonal rotation irrigation, all the electric energy generated by solar panels can be converted into irrigation energy under different light intensities, so that the water-saving irrigation equipment can work stably in different regions and the irrigation uniformity is ensured in different regions. According to the characteristics of solar energy resources and photovoltaic water-pumping units, the optimum design method of photovoltaic water-saving irrigation system is put forward. The minimum capacity of solar panels can meet the irrigation demand of a certain area, which can guide the engineering design of solar water-saving irrigation, greatly improve the engineering quality and energy utilization rate. It has the advantages of simple design, low cost, stable operation and energy-saving ring.
