The productivity of a solar still is influenced by the temperature difference between
condensing and evaporating areas. Previous researches determined that increasing the …

Over the recent years, a great deal of research has been conducted on various parameters
of solar stills owing to their low cost of water production rate and feasibility of use in the most …

The potable water shortage is a big problem facing the governments and decision-makers
everywhere. Solar distiller is one of the techniques that participate in solving this problem. In …

The use of graphite and copper oxide micro-flakes with different concentrations, different
basin water depths, and different film cooling flow rates is experimentally investigated in an …

Abstract A Novel Inclined Solar still (ISS) assessed by sand as Sensible Heat Thermal
Energy Storage Material (SHTESM) was fabricated with the view of improving yield. The …

In the present work, we conducted some modifications in the design and operation of
stepped distiller to improve its performance. The stepped distiller was modified by installing …

Paraffin wax is used as a phase change material for thermal energy storage using silver (Ag)
nanoparticles doped at different concentrations. The characteristics of Ag nanoparticles in …

Solar still is a cheap and convenient device for producing freshwater, but it's not popular due
to its low productivity. In this paper, we modified the conventional solar still. The outdoor …

This paper aimed to improve the thermal performance of the stepped solar still. So, the
effects of using different types of basin liners (corrugated and curved basin liners), jute cloth …
