ANALYSIS OF EVACUATED ANNULUS TUBE COLLECTOR ASSISTED SOLAR DESALTIFICATION SYSTEM

One of the most fundamental and fundamental necessities of life is energy. At the moment, our ability to generate electricity necessitates the use of traditional energy sources. Solar desalination's attractiveness as a low-cost, low-impact solution to the freshwater shortage issue stems from these features. A unique solar-evacuated glass tube collector coupled with a collective condenser heat pipe system is explored in this investigation. This paper illustrated a novel constructed heat pipe array by connecting the evacuated tube solar collector to a single condenser unit housing all of the heat pipes' evaporator tubes. The water was heated uniformly, and steam was produced quickly thanks to the ingenious heat pipe arrangement. This research looks into solar energy conversion devices, such as those used to heat water using the sun, and presents a thermal analysis of their efficiency and a payback time.
