An Experimental investigation had been executed in a solar distill unified with parabolic collector using PCM. This experiment had been compared with PCM less experimental setup. PCM and Parabolic solar collector are things embedded with the base system to increase the overall outcome. Used paraffin wax as PCM (Phase Change Material) was one of the most cost-effective approaches to store heat energy. The solar ray’s incidence had been harvested by using the solar distill in which the water passed by the water tubes. This base solar still consist of double slope and the water tube filled with PCM. These experiments were done at the water depth of 15 mm. In these experiments produce the results indicated that a solar distillation system with a Parabolic Solar Collector coupled with PCM yielded higher productivity and temperature levels compared to not utilizing PCM, and these experiments demonstrated that the introduction of PCM in DSSD with Parabolic solar collector with or without it PCM resulted the improvements of the productivity of 33.25% and 57.31% respectively.
Key words: Double Slope Solar Distill / Parabolic Solar Collector / Phase Change Material / Efficiency / Experimentation
