A Comparative Technical-Economic Study of two Water Pumping Systems for an Isolated Community in Algeria
The goal of this work is to size a photovoltaic pumping system built on a brushless DC motor and without accumulators, then to evaluate its cost by comparing the latter with a pumping system powered by a diesel generator for a system of irrigation in an isolated site in the city of Saïda in Algeria,...

Summary: | The goal of this work is to size a photovoltaic pumping system built on a brushless DC motor and without accumulators, then to evaluate its cost by comparing the latter with a pumping system powered by a diesel generator for a system of irrigation in an isolated site in the city of Saïda in Algeria, based on a technique known as the cost of the life cycle. The water pumping system is designed to irrigate an area of 8 hectares, planted with onions. Based on the results of this study, the photovoltaic pumping system is more economically viable compared to the system running on diesel. |
