Mathematical Modelling and Simulation of a Directly Coupled Water Pumping System, Using a Photovoltaic-Fed Synchronous Reluctance Motor

A mathematical model and simulation of a directly coupled water pumping system employing a photovoltaic-fed Synchronous Reluctance Motor (SynRM) is presented in this paper. The system is modelled and simulated in the MATLAB/Simulink environment, using the Simscape Toolbox. Obtained results show the effectiveness of the proposed system.
