“…The biased error in this study is determined by the accuracy of the measurement devices, whereas the random error is influenced by the fluctuations of the data obtained from the measuring devices. A similar error analysis model was also presented in a correlated study by Nagaraju et al, [33]. Here are several equations that represent the consideration of error.…”

This present study conducted an experimental analysis of the use of hollow circular fins (HCF) within the conventional single-slope solar still (CS4) chamber. To enhance energy absorption, the optimal HCF numbers were increased by the available chamber space. The three identical CS4 testing chambers were examined in the climatic conditions of the Sebelas Maret University Faculty of Engineering, located in Kentingan, Surakarta, Indonesia. The HCF absorber is implemented with 176 HCF, 176 HCF, and 216 HCF within the chamber space. The findings indicate that there is a direct correlation between the increased HCF numbers and both productivity and efficiency. The efficiency for 117 HCF, 176 HCF, and 216 HCF is 27.04%, 35.20%, and 42.16% respectively. Therefore, it was determined that correlation analysis significantly contributed to the relationship between the HCF implementation and the different radiation intensities in day-to-day testing. To obtain a more comprehensive analysis, the randomized complete block design (RCBD) experiment in collaboration using least squares regression was conducted to compare the experimental production of CS4 with its predicted value.

“…Moreover, the cost for purifying 1 Liter of water was 0.028$/L for twin wedge-shaped still. Nagaraju et al [39] experimented on SSSS by introducing sand troughs for heat storage at 1cm, 2cm, and 3cm water depth. The maximum productivity was found to be 0.2L/m 2 and 0.453L/m 2 for cases without and with heat storage at 1cm water depth.…”

In this present article, a thorough study of a single-slope solar still has been conducted. The single slope solar still was modified with an inclined wick at 30°. The basin water was varied with different salt concentrations (0 %, 2 %, and 4 %). The study was performed for four different cases viz: (1) Conventional Solar Still (CSS) (2) Tilted wick Solar Still (TWSS) with 0 % salt concentration (3) TWSS with 2 % salt concentration (4) TWSS with 4 % salt concentration. The experiment was conducted under constant radiation of 500 W/m2 that was provided with the help of external panels. The functional correlation between basin water temperature (Tw) and time has been established. Moreover, from the obtained results best distillate output was acquired at 2 % salt concentration as the salt particles trapped inside the wick pores help to increase the evaporation rate effectively. The overall distillate output increased by 8.3 %, 17.5 %, and 8.5 % for Case 2, Case 3, and Case 4 when compared to Case 1 respectively.

“…The results showed that the proposed designed produced 4.5 L/day compared to 2.95 L/day for the CSS and had a 52.54% higher yield with a 45.5% average thermal efficiency. Nagaraju et al [32] proposed a new method to enhance the performance of a single slope solar still by incorporating sand troughs.…”
