Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to understand the effect of basin water depth towards the cumulative distillate yield of the traditional and developed single basin double slope solar still (DSSS). Design/methodology/approach Modified single basin DSSS integrated with solar operated vacuum fan and external water cooled condenser was fabricated using aluminium material. During sunny season, experimental investigations have been performed in both conventional and modified DSSS at a basin water depth of 3, 6, 9 and 12 cm. Production rate and cumulative distillate yield obtained in traditional and developed DSSS at different water depths were compared and best water depth to attain the maximum productivity and cumulative distillate yield was found out. Findings Results indicated that both traditional and modified double SS produced maximum yield at the minimum water depth of 3 cm. Cumulative distillate yield of the developed SS was 16.39%, 18.86%, 15.22% and 17.07% higher than traditional at water depths of 3, 6, 9 and 12 cm, respectively. Cumulative distillate yield of the developed SS at 3 cm water depth was 73.17% higher than that of the traditional SS at 12 cm depth. Originality/value Performance evaluation of DSSS at various water depths by integrating the combined solar operated Vacuum fan and external Condenser.

传统和发达被动式单池双坡太阳能蒸馏器中盆水深对蒸馏物产率的影响

目的了解传统和发达的单池双坡太阳能蒸馏器(DSSS)的池深对累积馏出量的影响。设计/方法/方法采用铝材制造了集成太阳能真空风扇和外部水冷冷凝器的改进型单池DSSS。在阳光充足的季节，分别在3、6、9和12 cm的流域水深进行了常规和改良DSSS的实验研究。比较了传统的DSSS和新型DSSS在不同水深下的产率和累积馏出物率，找出了达到最大产率和累积馏出物率的最佳水深。结果表明:传统和改良双SS在最小水深为3 cm时产量最高;在水深为3、6、9和12 cm时，发酵后的SS累积馏出率分别比传统工艺高16.39%、18.86%、15.22%和17.07%。在水深为3 cm的条件下，发酵后的SS累计馏分产率比传统SS在水深为12 cm的条件下提高了73.17%。独创性/价值太阳能联合真空风机与外置冷凝器集成的DSSS在不同水深下的性能评估。
