Enhanced Solar Still Condensation Using a Radiative Cooling System with Phase Change Materials, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Shafii, Mohammad Behshad (Supervisor)
Abstract
Desalination of seawater is one of the best solutions for freshwater supply. Solar desalination is an appropriate way to desalinate seawater. The main disadvantage of solar desalination systems is low daily production. Considering the free radiative cooling potential, the purpose of this project is the increment of the daily yield of solar still by enhancement of condensation process. For transferring cooling potential of radiative cooling from nighttime to the daytime, phase change materials (PCMs) are used. Two types of condensers are fabricated in this project. One of them uses ambient air as a thermal sink and the other one uses radiative cooling which is saved in PCM. Describing...
