Energy and Exergy Analysis for Single Slope Passive Solar Still with Different Water Depth Located in Baghdad Center by Hayder Q. A. Khafaji, Hasanain A. Abdul Wahhab, Wisam Abed Kattea Al-Maliki, Falah Alobaid, Bernd Epple

“…The analysis is performed using the governing equations formulated according to the first and second laws of thermodynamics. Compared to solar still with 1 cm water depth, the obtained results indicated that raising the water depth to 2 and 3 cm caused an appreciable drop in water basin temperature, and high levels of water basin reduction were about 4% and 9%, respectively, from 8:00 a.m. to 14:00 p.m., which significantly affects heat and mass transfer and ultimately hinders further water productivity. …”
