In this work, a new attempt was made to study the behavior of the conventional solar still (CSS) by adding a black-painted copper plate and phosphate pellets. Therefore, the performance of the three solar stills has been studied and compared. The first is the CSS, and the second is the modified solar still (MSS). The MSS performance was tested using black-coated copper plate (measuring 49 × 49 cm and 0.2 cm thick) with and without phosphate pellets and compared to the CSS in the similar climatic conditions. The results showed that the combination of black coated copper plate and the inclusion of phosphate pellets improved the evaporation rate and daily productivity. During the experiments, yields using black coated copper plate without and with phosphate pellets were 14.96% and 29.53% greater than the CSS. The effectiveness of the CSS, MSS with copper metal plate (MSS-CP), and MSS with copper metal plate with phosphate pellets (MSS-CP and PP) are around 30.23, 35.3, and 41.44%, respectively.
在这项工作中,我们尝试通过添加涂有黑色油漆的铜片和磷矿颗粒来研究传统太阳能蒸馏器(CSS)的行为。因此,我们研究并比较了三种太阳能蒸馏器的性能。第一种是 CSS,第二种是改良太阳能蒸馏器(MSS)。我们使用涂有黑色油漆的铜片(尺寸为 49×49cm,厚度为 0.2cm)和/或磷矿颗粒对 MSS 性能进行了测试,并在类似的气候条件下与 CSS 进行了比较。结果表明,黑色涂覆铜片和包含磷矿颗粒的组合提高了蒸发率和日产量。在实验中,使用无磷矿颗粒的涂有黑色油漆的铜片和使用磷矿颗粒的涂有黑色油漆的铜片的产量分别比 CSS 高 14.96%和 29.53%。CSS、带有铜金属板的 MSS(MSS-CP)和带有铜金属板和磷矿颗粒的 MSS(MSS-CP 和 PP)的效率分别约为 30.23%、35.3%和 41.44%。
