摘要: Abstract This paper introduces a novel solar thermoelectric generator distillation system. The proposed system consists of parabolic concentrator, generator, porous evaporator and an internal condenser. A steady state mathematical model the has been developed simulated. shown overall efficiency range (15–25%), TEMs (0.6–1.5%), distillate (1.5–3)-kg/day output power (0.8–3.5)-W for radiation (400–800)-W/m 2 ambient temperature 298-K with wind speed 5 m/s. These ranges can be higher temperatures lower speeds. results are in good agreement those obtained by similar published theoretical experimental studies.
