Abstract
In the present work an attempt has been made to investigate the performance of a finned basin solar shell. For this purpose, two similar double slope solar stills are fabricated. The absorbing plate of one of the solar still is integrated with fins to enhance the rate of heat transfer for basin liner to water, while another still base is flat. It is observed that daily distillate output from the finned basin solar still is 18% more than the conventional double slope solar still.
