4 FAQs about Green solar water pump standard value

How to choose a solar water pumping system?

The type of solar water pumping system: borehole/well (submerged), floating or surface will depend on the water source. If the source is a borehole (proposed or existing) or deep well, then a submersible pump that fits the borehole or well should be selected. If the water source is a river, then a surface pump should usually be selected.

How do you design a solar water pumping system?

When designing a solar pumping system, the designer must match the individual components together. A solar water pumping system consists of three major components: the solar array, pump controller and electric water pump (motor and pump) as shown in Figure 1.

What are the components of a solar water pumping system?

A solar water pumping system consists of three major components: the solar array, pump controller and electric water pump (motor and pump) as shown in Figure 1. Note: Motor and pump are typically directly connected by one shaft and viewed as one unit, however occasionally belts or gears may be used to interconnect the two shafts.

What is the Design Month for a solar water pumping system?

Based on a tilt angle of 18 degrees, the lowest ratio is 0.438 so June will be the design month. If this is finalised as the design month, the solar water pumping system must then be selected based on an irradiation of 4.38kWh/m2 and the required flow of 10 m3 or 10000 litres (2,642 gallons).
