Hybrid Wind & Solar Generation Project

This project encompasses the design & testing of a self-reliant, off-grid wind and solar generation system to provide 400W load capacity. The conceptual design includes PV panels, wind motor simulation, DC manipulation, AC conversion, battery bank support, and comprehensive testing plans. Key components like solar panels, MPPT, inverter, and batteries are individually tested for functionality. The project aims to combine both systems effeciently to meet maximum load demand.

  1. Hybrid Wind & Solar Generation Project FINAL PRESENTATION

  2. Project Scope • Solar and wind generation provide for 400 W load • Operate under variety of weather conditions • Self-reliant, off-grid

  3. Design Process • Research and Simulink design of each generation system • Initial simulation of the wind and solar generation systems to obtain input and output of components • Testing individual components for functionality and researching component parameters • Testing each system individually and obtaining output data • Combining and testing the system as a whole to supply a maximum load

  4. Conceptual Design • PV panel to generate solar power • Motor simulates wind power • Each system will individually manipulate DC • Combination of inputs then converted to AC • Battery bank to support load Combined system block diagram

  5. Solar Test Plan • Individually test solar panel, Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT), inverter, battery • Each component tested under various conditions • Calculate expected power under different conditions (irradiance, temperature) Solar block diagram

  6. Solar Design • Solar panels connected in series (35.4 V, 7.63 A: 270W maximum) • Connected via solar combiner to MPPT • Two 12V batteries connected in series, sets load voltage level at 24 Vdc MPPT Batteries Solar panels Panel combiner

  7. Solar Design • Inverter connected to MPPT load terminals • Variable AC load Inverter with 150W load Series of lightbulb mounts and switches allow for easy and convenient testing
