Abstract
The most traditional solar desalination unit is solar still. In this chapter, the operating principle and heat transfer process of basin type solar still are presented in detail. The convection, radiation, and evaporation heat transfer fraction in solar still change with temperature are shown out. At the same time, a new group of relations forecasting water production is conducted. Also, some multistage basin-type solar stills with different structures are introduced. The maximum efficiency of the basin solar still is calculated. Finally, the main shortages and improvement direction of basin-type solar stills are discussed.
