  • Abstract
    This study is based on the use of the `Lewis number´ correlation concerning the mass flow rate, by comparing theoretical results with those obtained experimentally of a simple solar distiller still. Uses of single or double glass cover for periodically oriented or fixed solar still are studied. Experimental results and those calculated with the `Lewis number´ correlation show good agreements.
