Solar still is a simple equipment for the fresh water production in regions where scarce and rich solar energy sources. In this paper, unit was built tested south of China to investigate its production. The test results show that affected by average irradiation intensity, averaged at 6.27 kg/day, decreased 1.9 kg/day when daily radiation 236 W/m2. At same time, result because difference between...

Solar still is a convenient off-grid device for desalination, which can provide fresh water families, ships, islands, and so on. The conventional inclined solar (ISS) suffers from low efficiency productivity. To improve the performance of still, flat (FSS) proposed, has working principle similar to cell. condensate in FSS collected by capillary grid attached under ultra-hydrophilic glass cover,...

Emerging technologies increase the needs on self efficient mobile robotic applications that bring a new concern of sustainable and continuous power supply for the robotic platforms. This paper covers the various techniques and technologies used to design a solar powered robot, exploring the currently available products, software and limitations to this application. The main aim is to integrate ...
