Abstract: | On account of the energy crisis, several types of solar energy devices have been developed and marketed in various parts of the world with varying degrees of thermal performance. The economic aspect of these solar energy devices becomes more significant when they replace those devices which use conventional fuels. In this paper, an economic analysis of one of the solar energy devices, namely a G.I. sheet multiwick solar distillation plant, has been presented taking into account the various factors, viz. the lifetime of the system, salvage values of the system, interest rate and maintenance cost. |
