Fabricação e estudo de um destilador solar de baixo custo com cobertura móvel. Orientador: Dr. Luiz Guilherme de Meira Souza. 2023. 60f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Engenharia Mecânica) - Centro de Tecnologia, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/57154This work was thoroughly prepared with the aim of developing low-cost technology to reach communities affected by the lack of safe and suitable water for household consumption - the solar distiller with a movable cover. The construction methodology was mentioned, in which market research was conducted to determine the manufacturing cost, and tests were performed with the already-made distiller to obtain its performance and the volume distilled in three main configurations: the conventional one, with the addition of some crushed stones, and with cooling of the glass covers using water. Of the three configurations, the one that showed the highest performance and the greatest volume distilled was the one that used water-based panel cooling, approximately 38.60% and 4.275 liters, respectively.Acesso AbertoEnergia solarDestilador solarÁguaCusto-benefícioFabricaçãoMontagem e operaçãomasterThesisCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA MECANICA
