A single basin single slope solar still with 0.82mx 0.81m x 0.75m has been fabricated with G.I sheet and tested with different water depths of 2,3,4cm. Various solid and liquid sensible heat storage materials, Evaporative surface materials are used in the form of billets, in the still. To reduce glass cover temperature the outer glass was cooled by using sprinkler manually at regular interval of time. Theoretical analysis was performed and compared with experimental values. The performances of modified still were compared with conventional still of same size running under the same meteorological conditions. The solid sensible heat storage materials produces48% more productivity than conventional still. Liquid sensible heat storage material produces 19% more than conventional in till. The payback period of the still was 340 days.

Heat Storage Material

The transient response of a solid sensible heat storage unit which receives or supplies heat to a single flowing fluid is presented. The storage unit is composed of a number of rectangular cross-sectional channels for the flowing fluid, connected in parallel and separated by the heat storage material. The energy equation for the fluid and the transient conduction equation for the storage material are solved using finite difference techniques. The parameters which characterize the transient behavior of these units are identified. Results suitable for the prediction of the rate of heat storage and the outlet temperature of the fluid leaving the storage unit are presented as functions of the identified nondimensional parameters.
