Storage of the thermal energy of solar intensity has a significant effect on the efficiency of
desalination systems at nighttime, when solar intensity is not available. Solar energy …

Phase change heat storage has gained a lot of interest lately due to its high energy storage
density. However, during the phase shift process, Phase Change Materials (PCMs) …

A sustainable and cost-effective technique for desalinating water with solar energy to
alleviate the freshwater scarcity is the solar still. In this study, four different cases including …

An experimental investigation was conducted on a novel design of a stepped basin tubular
solar still (SBTSS) and a tubular solar still (TSS) under different water depths/equivalent …

This study is based on the effects of using a tubular solar still (TSS) with pistachio shells of
macro size as an energy storage material for generating high water extraction from the solar …

The present study aimed to improve the efficiency of the solar desalination unit by employing
