Water Distillation by Hexagonal Solar Still

By P Gopi

In this new area of green technology, Solar Distillation plays major role to convert the brackish and salt water into portable water. Because energy crises plays a major role in the world due to the increased birth rate and decreased death rate which leads to the high consumption and degradation of natural resources. From now the source of fresh water must be acquired from great oceans and seas that can be distilled by abundant solar technology to help the future generation to survive from the demand for getting the fresh water resource. The vision of this project is to boost the performance of the solar still by the incorporation of the diverse absorbed plate design like flat absorbed plate model, trapezoidal finned model, pin fin model. In addition to these design considerations, varied water depth, energy storing materials and prediction of solar radiations falling on different Days in Kamaraj college College of Engineering & Technology, Virudhunagar (9040'N latitude, 77057' longitude) with the slope angle of 200 of the still also taken into account for the improvement in the evaporation and condensation rate of the still using theoretical and experimental study.
