Effect of fins and silicon dioxide nanoparticle black paint on the absorber plate for augmenting yield from tubular solar still

Rajendra Prasad Arani et al.

Summary: The study aimed to enhance the yield of tubular solar still by using fins and coating the absorber plate with SiO2 nanoparticles in black paint. Results showed improvements in water and basin temperatures with the use of black paint containing 20% SiO2 nanoparticles, as well as using fins on the absorber plate to increase potable water production. The cost per liter of water produced was found to be lower when using the finned absorber plate coated with 20% SiO2 nanoparticles in black paint.
