Solar distillation in forced convection. Simulation and experience

JoséM. Veza and Valeriano Ruiz

Renewable Energy, 1993, vol. 3, issue 6, 691-699

Abstract: Scarcity of water and fossil energies in the canary Islands leads to an interest in a study on solar assisted desalination. A forced convection humidification-dehumidification process is analysed, where air is forced into an evaporation channel while saline water flows along the bottom, so that a fraction will evaporate to be absorbed by air.
