B, C, D, and E, respectively. The experimental outcomes show, for
case-E (the PV module using reflectors with water and forced air
cooling techniques together) due to the effect of air injected inside
the developed still, the accumulated production improved by
21.96% as compared to case-A. Also, for case-C (the PV module using
reflectors with forced air cooling technique) due to the high tem-

compared to case-A.

recorded 790, 780, 1085, 785, and 995 ml/m2h for cases A, B, C, D,

efficiency for injected the air inside the developed still is higher
than that the case without air injected. This because that the hourly
production for injected the air inside the developed still is more
than that the case without air injected as shown in Fig. 11. The
maximum hourly efficiency was recorded 49.44, 49.06, 74.64,
49.45, and 65.59% for cases A, B, C, D, and E, respectively. Also, the
hourly efficiency for case C is higher than that of case E, this because
that the hourly distillate production for case-C is higher than that of
case-E.
The overall hourly efficiency of the PV module using reflectors
with cooling techniques coupled with developed solar still with air
injection is shown in Fig. 14. The outcomes show that the maximum
overall hourly efficiency of the proposed system reached to 30.7%,
31.22%, 44.84%, 32.4%, and 40.65% for cases A, B, C, D, and E,
respectively. The outcomes presented that case-C (PV module using
reflectors with forced air cooling technique coupled with devel-
oped solar still with air injection) is the optimal operating case for
the proposed system.
