Abstract This paper presents the method of improvement of enhancing the performance of triangular pyramid solar still with and without latent heat energy
storage. For comparing the productivity of solar still with and without LHTESS a solar still is designed, fabricated. Experiments are conducted in hot
and humid climate of Chennai, India. Paraffin wax is used as LHTESS due to its feasible general and economic properties. The hourly productivity is
slightly higher in case of solar still without LHTESS during sunny days. There is an increase of about 35% in production of fresh water with
LHTESS than that of solar still… More >
