Abstract

In this paper, an attempt has been made to develop an irrigation water pump. The photovoltaic pump was used to watering new reclaimed region in Ber-Alabed, north Sinai, Egypt (latitude and longitude angles are 31.45oN and 33.0oE, respectively) using ISWPS computer program and hourly average weather data throughout a hole year. The design criteria composed: monthly PV tilt angle, PV sizing, monthly PV usage ratio and the extra electric energy, optimum ratio between pump flow rate to pump head, and coefficient of uniformity for lateral line. It has been abstracted that, the nominal PV power was 9.08 kW, which accept the maximum water demand in the critical month of July. The monthly PV usage ratio varied between 35 % and 100 %, and this resulted in unused PV electrical energy in water pumping of 6259 kWh/year, which significantly reduces the fixed cost of the solar pump.
