摘要
A sun tracking system was deployed for enhancing the solar still productivity. A computerized sun tracking device was used for rotating the solar still with the movement of the sun. A comparison between fixed and sun tracked solar stills showed that the use, of sun tracking increased the productivity for around 22%, due to the increase of overall efficiency by 2%. It can be concluded that the sun tracking is more effective than fixed system and it is capable of enhancing the productivity.
