Abstract
Based on energy balances for different components of a multi-basin sol ar still, namely, the basin-liner, the water mass and the glass cover, analytical expressions for water and glass temperatures have been der ived in terms of climatic and design parameters of the system. It is i nferred that the daily yield is a maximum for the least water depth in each basin
