A weir-type solar still is proposed to recover rejected water from the water purifying systems for solar hydrogen production. This consists of an inclined absorber plate formed to make weirs, as well as a top basin and a bottom basin. Water is flowed from the top basin over the weirs to the...

An impressive amount of investigation has been devoted to enhancing overall thermal and hydrodynamic performance of microchannel heat sinks. The small size of microchannel heat sinks and their ability to dissipate heat generated by modern electronics makes them the first choice for the...

This paper describes the experimental studies carried out to test thermal cycling of a real-scale PCM–air heat exchanger at ambient temperatures. To achieve this goal an experimental setup previously designed and used for testing real-scale prototypes of PCM–air heat exchangers is modified....
