A solar assisted desalination system using heat pump

This paper includes results of an investigation carried out on a desalination plant which consists of a direct expansion solar assisted heat pump (DXSAHP) coupled to a single-effect evaporator unit. The working fluid used in the heat pump is R134a. The distillate is obtained via falling film evapo...
