Abstract

Solar distillation is a method of thermal desalination in which water is evaporated using solar energy and the separated water vapor is condensed again as pure water. This is a good practical alternative in offering a renewable energy source that is used to produce clean water in areas where there is a lack of clean water. This study aims to obtain the results of the amount of thermal energy obtained from a passive solar desalination system with a double slope and the factors that greatly affect the amount of thermal energy in the system. In this study, the method used for data collection was an experiment carried out for eight days. From the research results, the highest thermal energy produced is 9.18 kWh and the lowest is 1.23 kWh, and the factors that affect the amount of thermal energy are the heat transfer coefficient and the amount of distilled water produced by the system. By knowing the amount of thermal energy produced by the system, areas that have a lack of clean water can use a passive solar desalination system with a double slope that uses solar energy as its energy source.
