Project on study of Solar Based Irrigation System in Bangladesh

Abstract

In this thesis we analyzed the possibility of solar based irrigation system in Bangladesh. We developed a dc based system and applied the solar power to a dc motor. A prototype system has been developed. In this prototype system a dc motor has been used as a pump for irrigation purpose. The motor is of 35 watt. Although this motor is of lower rating, but the concept can be used in ac pump operated system fruitfully. If we use inverter at the output of the dc system, we shall get ac output which can be applied to an induction motor based pump system.
