Water is vital to life and supplying of potable water can hardly be overstressed in recent
years. The conventional desalination processes require significant amount of energy to …

Scarcity for water exists in many countries even though three-fourth of the earth is covered
by water. The reasons for scarcity of water are worldwide rapid growth of industry and …

This paper proposes volume of fluid (VOF) model to investigate the potential of Al 2 O 3-
water nanofluid to improve the productivity of a single slope solar still. Accordingly, VOF …

In this paper, a new design of a v-corrugated absorber solar still with built-in phase change
material (PCM) is presented. This design allows for the expansion of melting wax through a …

In this paper, a numerical study is performed to investigate the effects of nanofluid on the
productivity of a stepped solar still. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis is arranged to determine …

The present empirical study aims to achieve the highest cumulative yield of hemispherical
solar distillers. In order to achieve this goal as well as to achieve the maximum possible …

Water is one of the prime elements responsible for life on the Earth. The demand of potable
water is growing continuously due to its rapid use in agriculture, industry, and population. To …

A stand-alone triple basin solar desalination system is experimentally tested and the results
are discussed in this paper. This system mainly consists of a triple basin glass solar still …

The freshwater shortage problem is a global problem that has raised great concerns.
However, most solutions involve heavy energy consumption. Solar desalination and …

Solar still is an ideal source of fresh water for both domestic and agricultural aspects. It is
one of the most important viable applications of solar energy. The simplest and most proven …
