Abstract As a means of harvesting solar energy for water treatment, solar-driven vapor generation is becoming more
appealing. Due to their entangled fibrous networks and high surface area, fibers can be used as building blocks
to generate water vapor. In this paper, using a two-dimensional fiber bundle model, we studied the generation of
solar vapor based on the fiber height, distance between fibers, and input sun radiation. The performance of solar
absorption system was also evaluated by evaluating thermal and water management. Results showed a constant
increase in solar vapor generation with an increasing fiber height and decreasing inter-fiber distance. However,… More >
