Keywords Phase change materials, solar still, flat plate collector, water distillation, heat pipe
Abstract Solar energy technology may be utilized to purify salty water and produce drinking water since it is readily available, free of cost, and does not damage the atmosphere. Traditional solar stills' low production is the issue. This system was created in this effort to address this issue, and it is. The study improved the output of solar stills by examining the experimental inquiry and numerical of the desalination unit. A solar still is a solitary basin with heat pipes at the absorber plate that transmit thermal energy to salty water to expedite the evaporation process using a separate working fluid. As a result, research the ideal liquid to boost solar still productivity. The heat pipe was utilized for the goal of transmitting thermal energy to salty water, the type of thermosiphon is used as it does not contain fabric, as it is lightweight, and the transmission of thermal energy significantly in a small unit which accelerates the evaporation process. Therefore, the rise in productivity Studying and assessing the productivity of the solar distiller is the goal, along with utilizing a flat plate accumulator to warm the water before it enters the system and a variable stage change material (paraffin wax) to store energy and launch it after dusk so that work can continue from three to four hours, increasing daily production by fifty to seventy-five percent.
