Özet
Theoretically and experimentally, this study examined how clean water may be generated from ambient air in Kirkuk City, Iraq. As desiccant materials, blue silica gel and a composite substance consisting of silica gel and calcium chloride were utilised, and a single-slope device consisting of two similar portions was used. The process entails humidity adsorption at nighttime and humidity desorption and vapour condensation during the daytime to generate water droplets. The regeneration process's theoretical outcomes were anticipated by employing the 4th-order Rung Kutta approach in MATLAB, and a price analysis was used to find out the price of producing freshwater. The findings demonstrated that the silica gel's theoretical cumulative productivity was significantly higher than its collected one. In contrast, the experimentally measured silica gel temperature was higher than the predicted one. Also, it was found …
