Abstract:

Brushless DC Motors have recently discovered frequent usage in industrial applications due to their advantages over other AC motors. This paper basically talks about the speed control of a BLDC motor fed from a standalone Solar PV system with perturb and observes the MPPT method to extract the maximum efficiency. The Particle Swarm Optimization technique has been used to find the optimized result for the PID controller. The end result shows the PSO controller controls the speed of the BLDC motor quite well.
