Performance evaluation of spherical and pyramid solar stills with chamber stepwise basin

In this work, novel designs of single slope solar still are suggested. Spherical and pyramid shapes with chamber stepwise basin were added to the conventional solar still design. An experimental study was performed to investigate the effect of introduced design modifications on the output parameters of the modified solar still. The addition of semi-spherical and chamber stepwise design enhanced the productivity of modified distiller by up to 57.1% as compared with pyramid solar still.

Automated summary

This study suggests novel designs for single slope solar stills, incorporating spherical and pyramid shapes with chamber stepwise basins. Experimental results show that these design modifications significantly increase the productivity of the solar still, with the modified distiller achieving up to 57.1% higher output compared to the pyramid solar still.
