Exploitation of an insulated air chamber as a glazed cover of a conventional solar still

Abstract

AbstractThe countries of North Africa suffer from a serious problem that affects a large number of people. The trouble is the provisioning of drinking water. Several techniques are used but solar distillation; which seems to be an appropriate, economical, and easy solution. Conventional solar distiller is used in the Saharan areas but the yield of this device is low, that's why there are several studies that are focused on improving this distiller. The technique of double glazing gives an increase in the efficiency of a solar collector; hence, the idea of using the same technique in a conventional solar distiller. Two covers of glasses separated by 1 cm, isolated from the four sides was put on a distiller of dimensions 0.5 × 0.5 m. The results show that this technique minimizes the distiller's yield by 56.52% when compared with the conventional solar distiller.
