Abstract: A V-trough solar concentrator has been combined with an inclined flat-plate wick-type solar still. Outdoor testing was carried out with and without the solar concentrator on clear days in summer and winter. The equipment was used to investigate the enhancement of the outdoor performance of the wick-type solar still by the solar concentrator.
