Question:

A village in Antigua \(\left(17^{\circ} \mathrm{N}, 61^{\circ} \mathrm{W}, 15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}-30^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right.\) temperature, range), West Indies, requires \(5000 \mathrm{gal}\) of water per day for community water supply. Assuming a year-round average insolation of \(8 \mathrm{kWh} /\) day, design the system using the following components:

PV panels: Solarex panels \(17.5 \mathrm{~V}\) and \(3.6 \mathrm{~A}\) at \(1000 \mathrm{~W} / \mathrm{m}^{2}\) and \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\)

Pump: Grundfos multistage pump input \(105 \mathrm{~V}\) DC, 9 A, \(30 \%\) efficiency
