摘要
In this communication, an analysis of an inverted absorber solar still has been presented. Analytical expressions for water temperature, condensing cover temperature, hourly yield and instantaneous thermal efficiency have been derived in terms of design and climatic parameters. Numerical computation has been performed for a typical day of Delhi weather for a normal as well as an inverted absorber solar still. It is found that the inverted absorber solar still gives about double the output of the conventional solar still. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
