Performance enhancement of a tubular solar still by utilizing wire mesh packing under harmonic motion

Development of a novel cellulose foam augmented with candle-soot derived carbon nanoparticles for solar-powered desalination of brackish water

“…Estimation of the freshwater yield was carried out using a calibrated flask. The following equation is applied to assess the propagated uncertainty in the calculation of the yield, based on uncertainties in the measured parameters, of the function X : 34 where, ‘ U x ’ represents the propagated uncertainty of ‘ X ’ and ‘ U n ’ is the uncertainty of measured parameter ‘ x n ’. The uncertainties associated with the instruments and the range are provided in Table 1.…”

Techno-Economic and Enviroeconomic Analysis Review of Distinct Passive and Active Solar Distillation Still

“…al. [82] presented a novel work for increasing the performance and productivity (by heat absorbing capacity) of tubular solar still (Figure 25) by utilizing steel wire mesh porous packing with vibratory excitation system (for transvers harmonic forced vibration to destroy the surface tension and boundary layer of salty water). Yield increment of tubular modified solar still (TMSS) is 34% as compare to tubular conventional solar still (TCSS).…”

Recent Developments of Solar Stills and Humidification De-humidification Desalination Systems: A Review

“…El-Said et al [80] conducted an experimental study of a hybrid desalination system utilizing tubular SS and liquid saturated porous material. Vibrator was employed inside wire mesh screening, generating forced vibrations to break the boundary layer in brine.…”
