What is MPPT?
Solar arrays have a power curve with a maximum power point and the device that sets this point is called a Maximum Power Point Tracker
Working Model
MPPT Working
MPPT checks output of PV module. Compare O/P of PV module with battery voltage. Fix the voltage at which PV module give the maximum power.
Maximum Power Point Tracking is electronic tracking system not mechanical system. The charge controller looks at the output of the panels, and compares it to the battery voltage..
Cont ...
The best power that the panel can put out to charge the battery. It takes this and converts it to best voltage to get maximum AMPS into the battery.
MPPT solar charge controller is used to correct for detecting the variations in the current-voltage characteristics of solar cell and shown by I-V curve.
It forces PV module to operate at voltage close to maximum power point to draw maximum available power.
MPPT solar charge controller allows users to use PV module with a higher voltage output than operating voltage of battery system.
Assume your battery is low, at 12 volts. A MPPT takes that 17.6 volts at 7.4 amps and converts it down, so that what the battery gets is now 10.8 amps at 12 volts. Now you still have almost 130 watts.
Series: Volts increase, Amp-hours remain the same Parallel: Volts remain the same and the Amp-hours increase!
Cont
This allows you to configure how many volts, at how many amp-hours your need.
Cold weather, cloudy or hazy days: Normally, PV module works better at cold temperatures and MPPT is utilized to extract maximum power available for them.
When battery is deeply discharged: MPPT can extract more current and charge the battery if the state of charge in the battery is lowers.
PV output power is used to control DC-DC converter directly. MPPT solar charge controller can be applied to other renewable energy sources such as small water turbines, wind-power turbines, etc.
Deliverables
Hardware will have Ability to Recover Lost Battery Capacity, Increase Battery Charge Acceptance. An LCD continuously displays the percentage of duty cycle and battery charge level. The output of PV array is DC source then we convert it in to AC.
