Abstract

The energy analysis of a passive solar distillation unit was the focus of this study. A 40-liter solar distillation plant was constructed and adjusted for the intended output of 5 liters of distilled water. The developed unit's performance was monitored from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Even so, the solar produced 4.5 liters of fresh water per m2 each day. According to the solar still's updraft assessment, the maximum daily energy efficiency was found to be 38.27 percent.
