Abstract
Solar distillation is very much effective for availing drinkable pot water, especially in desert areas and salt-producing areas. A Solar Still is a device that can be used to convert impure (saline) water into fresh drinking water using the process of Distillation. The energy source used in a Solar Still is sunlight thus it uses renewable energy. This paper describes a set of equations that can be used to find the distillate yield of a solar still by taking input parameters such as Solar Insolation and the basin area. A solar still is used for producing fresh drinking water from impure water and the equations help in estimating the yield. It also determines the efficiency of the solar still.
