摘要
In this research work pyramid solar still is experimentally researched on both passive and active mode. In active mode, the pyramid solar still is incorporated with straight tube and spiral tube solar water heater. The experiments were carried out by passive and active pyramid solar still at 1cm water depth. It is found that the pyramid solar still incorporated with the spiral tube solar water heater operated at mass flow rate of water at least amount produced the higher productivity of 6.35kg/m(2)/day with the daily energy and exergy efficiency of 15.25 and 3.22%, respectively. The pyramid solar still incorporated with the spiral tube solar water heater increases the productivity, energy and exergy efficiency of about 12.18, 14.58, and 18.76%, respectively as compared to the straight tube solar water heater.
