Design and optimization of an air heating solar collector with integrated phase change material energy storage for use in humidification-dehumidification desalination

Compared to solar water heaters, high-temperature solar air heaters have received relatively little investigation and have resulted in few commercial products. However, in the context of a humidification-dehumidification (HD) desalination cycle, air heating offers significant performance gains for t...
