Performance of a single basin two slope solar still has been studied theoretically and experimentally. A single basin does two slope solar still of 450mm x 600 mm basin area is fabricated from an acrylic sheet of 3.5 mm. The condensing glass covers of 4 mm thickness with 30° tilt angle are used. In the present work, an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of the various parameters on the productivity of solar still like water depth, wind velocity, solar radiation, etc. The overall production of the still was higher during March, April, August, November and December and it is around 4 liters/day. The average production of the still was 2.1 liters/day/m2. The hourly temperature has been recorded for water, basin liner, and glass surfaces. It is seen that the production rate increases with increase in wind velocity and cooling of glass covers.
