The effects of flake graphite nanoparticles, phase change material, and film cooling on the solar still performance
Abstract
In this paper, we performed four modifications on the solar still, as (A) adding the graphite nanoparticles, (B) the graphite nanoparticles together with the phase change material (PCM), (C) the graphite nanoparticles together with glass film cooling, and (D) graphite nanoparticles with both PCM and glass film cooling. The effects of modifications are measured and compared with each other. The productivities of modified (A), (B), (C), and (D) solar stills are enhanced by about 50.28%, 65.00%, 56.15% and 73.80%, respectively, as compared with the conventional solar still. The influences of saline water depths on the performance of modifications (A) and (B) are also considered. Results revealed that the best output yield is obtained for 0.5cm water depth for all solar stills.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
