摘要：Distilled water production using Solar Still is a process which evolved in the recent past. Several experiments have proved viability in the output but still have a long way to accelerate the rate of production. This project deals with solar desalination using solar still incident on an inclined glass plate as against the conventional horizontal plate. The rate of input has to be balanced to that of the output rate in order to avoid stagnation of heat that is lost due to the material of the wall in the still. There is also an instance that the condensed water falls back into the still which gets recycled &reduces the efficiency of the still. The inclined surface is made conventional to overcome the shortfall in transmittance volume at the incident surface. The increased transmittance volume increases the rate of evaporation. Despite framing the underlined convention of providing inclined surface to augment transmittance volume, the process suffers balancing of heat transmission resulting in stagnation of heat. The scope of the thesis is therefore to enhance the heat transfer by providing chimney and avoid stagnation of heat by using alternate material for the wall to avoid loss of heat through transmission.
