Many experimental and numerical works have been done on different configurations of solar stills to optimize the design by investigative the effect of climatic, operational and design parameters on its performance. One of the most important of the operational parameters that has received a considerable attention in the literature is the brine depth. A study was subsequently conducted to verify this trend by an experimental investigation on three types of solar still that was fabricated with an area of 1 m2 and tested in the composite climate of Coimbatore, Tamilnadu, India, (Latitude: 11°N; Longitude; 77°E and an altitude of 409 m above sea level) with five different brine depths, namely 1, 4, 6, 8 and 10 cm. The present study clearly validated that the decreasing trend in productivity with the increase of brine depth.
