چکیده

Flat plate-type solar water distillation (FPSWD) is having importance for providing hot water and drinking water simultaneously to households in rural areas or small community/hotels. It utilizes solar radiation to heat the water, produce fresh water out of the saline or brackish water, and also produce hot water. The paper is focused on field performance of inclined FPSWD for domestic and commercial applications. Field Performance data of inclined FPSWD has been recorded during summer and winter. It observed that on Solar Global Radiation 6.2 kWh/m, maximum output of distilled water generation achieved 6.03 l/day per m at ambient temperature of 23 °C within 8–9 h.
