“…When the experimental results are plotted with the predictions, almost all data are in the range of −30% and +30% (Figure 9). The horizontal axis is the experimental data, while the vertical axis is the prediction data obtained using Equation (11). The data were in reasonable agreement with the established correlations.…”

“…Moreover, Aburideh et al [10] obtained about 0.017 L/d of distilled water from a device. Zeroual et al [11] performed experiments using a double-slope solar distiller, obtaining approximately 2.33-6.26 L/d distilled water. Sifat and Uddin [12] experimentally studied solar water desalination and obtained about 1.970 L/d of freshwater.…”

This study aimed to enhance distilled water production by employing conventional single-slope solar distillers with continuous seawater input. Three solar absorbers—i.e., a flat absorber, an absorber with 10 fins, and an absorber with 15 fins—were designed and examinedexperimentally. The seawater entered the distillers continuously due to gravity. Moreover, the seawater level inside the distillers was kept constant by using a floating ball valve. The overall size of each distiller was fixed at 1136 mm × 936 mm × 574 mm. The performance of the distillers was analyzed and discussed. The average yields of the flat absorber, the absorber with 10 fins, and the absorber with 15 fins were 1.185 L/d, 1.264 L/d, and 1.404 L/d, respectively. The results of the absorber with 15 fins were about 18.5% higher than those of the flat absorber. The experimental results were compared with the established correlations. This new design with increased water yield provides an effective approach for harvesting sunlight in remote tropical regions for small-scale solar desalination.

“…As per the study the performance of a solar still augmented with a flat-plate collector. It has been concluded that the yield of distilled water has been increased up to 231% in case of tap water as an input inlet by 52% as in the case of saline water as feed to the still [22][23][24][25][26][27]. Dwivedi and Tiwari [15] concluded that the cost of potable water produced from dual slope solar still is of Rs.…”

Potable water and energy are the two basic requirements for everyday life of human. The world is now known to the crisis of potable water and availability of energy in daily life utilities. The greatest challenge in front of the people is to get the pure water for daily uses. In this paper experimental studies and a comparison of modified dual slope hybrid photo voltaic (PV/T) solar thermal still and a photo voltaic thermal (PVT) double slope active solar still with two flat plate collectors connected and integrated to the basin of solar still has been performed at KIET Group of Institutions Ghaziabad, India at Campus premises of hostel roof top in two steps, also a solar powered modified PMDC motor has been used to circulate the water in the basin to increase the yield of the system for water production. Hybrid photo voltaic-thermal (PV/T) generates electrical energy and heat. A modified dual slope hybrid photo voltaic thermal (PV/T) dual slope solar thermal still has been designed and fabricated to study the performance for water production. Experimental data for distillate yield, water temperature have been included. The methodology for the modification in design and fabrication of dual slope active solar still has been discussed in detail. The actual setup specifications in addition to the mode of performing the experiment also given in details with the results proven after comparisons. The model of modified distillation system for water production is validated with experimental data. It has been also proven that the yield obtained from modified dual slope hybrid photo voltaic (PV/T) solar thermal still significantly more in comparison to the previous dual slope solar stills in use. Actual photograph of the setup and site are included.
