Performance analysis of solar ethanol distillation

Continuous solar ethanol distillation systems having flat-plate and evacuated heat pipe solar collectors are constructed to study their performances and economic viability. The mathematical model of each main component is carried out and the system simulation is developed. The simulated outputs expr...
