Abstract:
In this paper mathematical modeling of a SPVT active solar still is done. The still chosen is a single basin single slope active solar still with hybrid solar panel for heating the water of still and producing power to run the DC motor to maintain the water flow. The Analysis is done taking in consideration the geographical location of a village. The village is Namauli situated in Gautam Budh Nagar, (U.P.), INDIA, (28 ̊ 32 ̍ N, 77 ̊ 23 ̍ E). The solar insolation and day time temperature are taken from the standard values provided on Government of India and other authentic websites. A Mathematical modeling of the chosen still is done using MATLAB with the help of the energy equations of Hybrid active solar still given by various researchers and scientists earlier. From there various parameters have been calculated along with the yield of the distill water on daily basis. The depth of the water and pump running time for the still has been varied and various results have been calculated.
