The difference in temperature between the of basin water and glass cover is most important regulating factor for getting yield from a solar still. higher differential, more distillate still produces. This can be enhanced either by increasing decreasing or combining both strategies together. A strategy lowering to cool it with air flowing water. Cooling not only boosts production but also cleans...

The utility solar power plants were reviewed and classified by two basic groups: direct thermal concentrating solar power (CSP) and photovoltaic (PV). CSP as Parabolic Trough Collector (PTC) of 100 MW solar power plants (SPP) is suggested and suitable to provide solar thermal power for Qatar. Although, LFC had enough experience for small projects, it is still need to work in large scale plant s...

This study presents a simple device using solar radiation as source of energy to convert brackish water freshwater. To enhance the productivity cascade stills, new structure absorber plate with sloped surfaces and baffles was proposed present slight layer thickness improve amount incident. A physical model is developed taking into account various parameters which affect distillate yield sills. ...

Passive solar distillation is cheap and energy-efficient technology but its main disadvantage low productivity. Thus, there are many attempts to improve stills’ productivity, one of them changing the mass water. This paper presents results validation thermal processes modeling in a still (SS). In order validate model, experimental studies were conducted laboratory ensure uniform climatic condit...
