“…9 shows the effect of the variation of the feeding flow saline water into the CFSS, the production of the single distillation cell decreases from 26.92% (3.3 kg m À2 d À1 ) to less than 21.21% (2.6 kg m À2 d À1 ) when the feed rate increases from 0.138 kg h À1 to 0.972 kg h À1 . This result is consistent with the findings of Zerrouki et al [32].…”

In this article, the validity of a numerical simulation of a basin solar still coupled with a condensation chamber was analyzed, before being cooled through a cooling water system. The system contained a serpentine pipe combined with a rectangular sheet of galvanized steel. The model was validated by comparing calculated and then experimental results mentioned in previous research for a typical day in the month of June 2013, the comparison of results showed a good agreement between the experimental and numerical tests. The model was developed to evaluate the performance of the system with optimum mass flow and compared throughout the typical day of each month of the year with that of a solar still without cooling. The model was investigated numerically according to meteorological data of the Algerian city, Khemis Miliana using the model of Capderou. The equations are modeled by the finite difference method, the Gauss–Seidel iterative method was used to solve the resulting algebraic equation. The highest productivity of the year was 6.7 Kg/m2 during the typical day of august with 60% higher productivity than the still without cooling. It was observed that the productivity of the solar still was sensitive to the flow mass of cooling water. Both the condenser chamber volume and the area from the opening of the evaporator to the condenser chamber have a significant effect on distillate production of the system. © 2019 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 38:e13146, 2019

“…The results showed that the solar still productivity was enhanced by nanofluids and providing vacuum. Zerrouki et al [2] presented a numerical simulation of capillary film solar still (distiller) coupled in series with the other conventional solar still. In addition, some parameters influences were studied to define the optimal operating conditions for the present system.…”
