摘要
The performance parameters of the corrugated solar still (CrSS) and conventional solar still (CSS) are investigated experimentally from another point of view. The authors' view concerns with using the double layer wick material and also reflectors together inside the CrSS. In addition, the influence of saline water depth (1, 2, and 3 cm) on CrSS performance was also investigated. Results indicated an enhancement in the total productivity and efficiency of the CrSS. During experimentations, the productivities of CrSS with wick and reflectors are about 145.5% higher than the CSS, at a brine depth of 1 cm, and the daily efficiency of CrSS and CSS are approximately 59% and 33%, respectively.
