Present research study shows the evacuated tubes coupled with solar still to enhance the yield. Basin area of 1-meter square taken for the experiments and 14 evacuated tubes have been used at a lower side of the still. Calcium stones as sensible heat storage material (SHSM) have also been utilized t...
