Productivity enhancements of compound parabolic concentrator tubular solar stills

The performance of compound parabolic concentrator assisted tubular solar still (CPC-TSS) and compound parabolic concentrator-concentric tubular solar still (CPC-CTSS) (to allow cooling water) with different augmentation systems were studied. A rectangular saline water trough of dimension 2 m × 0.03...

A rectangular saline water trough of dimension 2 m × 0.03 m × 0.025 m was designed and fabricated.
