Numerical Modelling in Enhancing the Water Desalination of Active Solar Still System

The scarcity of water is amongst many challenges faced by the modern world. It is well established that of the 97% of water on earth, only 0.3% is readily available with minimal treatment. Thus, desalination technologies are adopted as one of the options to solve the said issue. The most suitable...
