Design And Implementation Of PV Based Standalone Air Cooler

Abstract

This paper is about designing and developing of PV based Air cooler without the access of grid system.it is mainly used for industrial and working areas where we can reduce the power usage. Air blower is coupled with PMDC motor and speed is controlled with Arduino UNO controller which is cost efficient and simple in programming. DC-DC buck converter is placed between PV panel and PMDC motor for step down of input voltage from PV panel. The performance of the proposed system is simulated in MATLAB/ Simulink environment and the result are validated.
