Techno-Economic Study of a New Hybrid Solar Desalination System for Producing Fresh Water in a Hot–Arid Climate
By taking advantage of the obtained experimental data, the impact of employing concentrating solar collectors, using an electric heater, and changing the water height in the basin on the performance of a hybrid solar still system was investigated. Eight different operating modes for the system were...

By taking advantage of the obtained experimental data, the impact of employing concentrating solar collectors, using an electric heater, and changing the water height in the basin on the performance of a hybrid solar still system was investigated.

According to the results, the best height of water in the basin is 10 mm. It is the lowest examined height.

For the climatic condition of Sirjan, Iran, which is where the experiments were performed, and water height in the basin of 10 mm, using the hybrid system in the active mode results in 8178 mL/m<sup>2</sup> of fresh water production, and a <i>CPL</i> of $0.04270 per liter. |
