Solar Water Pumping System

PV array is increasingly employed for water pumping system. In this paper, the developed boost converter steps up the voltage produced by the PV array to a value which is suitable to run a single-phase induction motor. The inverter converts DC to AC is controlled by using sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) technique. By using a LCfilter the harmonics are eliminated and pure sine wave is o...

Optimization Of Water Pumping System Using Differential Evolution Strategies

Differential Evolution (DE) is a population based search algorithm that comes under the category of evolutionary optimization techniques. It is an improved version of GA, and is exceptionally simple, significantly faster & robust at numerical optimization and is more likely to find a function’s true global optimum. In the present study, DE is used to solve the classical optimization problem of ...

Two-dimensional lubrication analysis and design optimization of a Scotch Yoke engine linear bearing

Recent study has shown that the application of a Scotch Yoke crank mechanism to a reciprocating internal combustion engine reduces the engine’s size and weight and generates sinusoidal piston motion that allows for complete balance of the engine. This paper describes detailed investigation of the performance of a linear bearing assembly, which is one of the key components of the Scotch Yoke mec...
