Abstract


In domestic desalination system, salt water is heated and converted to steam by using conventional system like LPG or using induction cooker. The steam is then condensed by the condenser without using electricity which is designed on the basis of the thermal analysis. Condenser consists of a water tank with copper tubes immersed in it.CFD analysis is done for the different diameter and length of pipes and the more effective pipe is found out. Similarly, different shapes of the selected pipes in the tank are decided using CFD analysis. Finally the system is validated using experimental analysis.
