Abstract:In this article, thermal modeling of a single basin solar still coupled with an evacuated tube solar collector under natural circulation mode has been carried out on the basis energy balance equations. The expressions of inner surface of glass cover, outer surface of glass cover, basin liner, and water mass have been derived for the numerical computation. The experiments were conducted under various meteorological conditions for 0.05 m water depth. This experimental setup has been installed at Solar Energy Par… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
