“…Figure 9b illustrates the variation of SA and head on the overall efficiency and found that it increases with the operating head and reaches maximum efficiency at 35 m operating head 33 . It was also observed from Figure 9c that the efficiency of the solar water pump is higher in the winter season than in summer season since higher tilt angle of the solar panel maintained in winter.…”

The constant depletion of the existing energy sources and their environmental effects have generated interest in employing renewable energy sources to power water pumping systems, such as solar‐photovoltaic. The research addresses the optimal photovoltaic (PV) power output, solar radiation, operating head, and tilt angle for maximum solar energy used to capture more solar radiation for solar water pumping for irrigation purposes. In order to get the best performance from the solar PV water pump, such as discharge (Q), hydraulic power (PH), pump efficiency (ήp), and overall efficiency (ήo), the design of experiments‐based response surface methodology was implemented in this work. The data required for the RSM model were obtained from the experimental work performed at location 28.67° N, 77.21° E, Delhi, India. The experiments performed at five different ranges of input variables PV power output (4000, 4250, 4500, 4750, and 5000 W), Solar radiation (200, 350, 500, 650, and 800 W/m2), operating head (15, 20, 25, 30, and 35 m) Tilt angle (5°, 10°, 15°, 20°, and 25°). The best output parameters The best conditions for a solar PV water pump (16.8 m3/h discharge, 1.85 kW hydraulic power, 81.15% pump efficiency, and 16.12% overall efficiency) were discovered to be Po 5000 W, SA 260 W/m2, Head 35 m, and TA 19°. The predicted result was validated using an RSM‐based solution, and the error% was found to be within acceptable limits (>5%). The desirability 0.963 of the model was indicating the good solution.

Diesel-powered irrigation pumps are widely used. However, due to the global increase in the price of oil, the hazardous pollutants released during combustion, the high cost of maintenance, and the short lifespan of conventional vehicles, innovators have been compelled to find an alternative. Scientists are now developing a solar-powered irrigation water pumping device. Solar is a good alternative because it can be used anywhere, even in remote areas. Studying what affects a solar photovoltaic water pump's efficiency is the primary objective of this effort. It was shown to be more economical, less harmful to the environment, and dependable than diesel-powered water pumps, requiring less maintenance and having a longer service life. In this investigation, the effects of AT ( o C), SR (W/m 2 ), SAA (degrees), and TA (degrees) on SPVWPS were investigated. In order to maximize the output response discharge (m 3 /hr) and the pump efficiency (%), the RSM was used to model to obtain optimal values of input parameters. At a parameter combination of solar radiation (451 W/m 2 ), ambient temperature (27 o C), surface azimuthal angle (-18 o ), and tilt angle (55 o ), the maximum discharge (48.7 m 3 /hr.) and pumping efficiency (58.8%) are reached (57 o ). It turned out that the formulated mathematical model could accurately predict the SPVWPS's performance and efficiency.
