Abstract

In this study, we used three-dimensional (3D) printed concave geometries filled with activated carbon to create a unique 3D solar evaporator for clean water production. The evaporation process was modeled considering airflow and solar radiation to investigate the advantages of 3D concave geometries. This work encompasses a series of studies, focusing on mass transfer inside the concavity and around the structure, to elucidate specific exchange points. Additionally, the research explores the effects of air velocity and the incorporation of additional holes within the structure, with the aim of improving evaporation.
