In our previous study [J. Adv. Sci. 8, 57 (1996)], results of the indoor performance test of a tilted-tray, wick type solar still with a condensing chamber have been reported. In the present study, this solar still has been improved so as to be a circulation type, where the moist air can circulate between the evaporator and the condenser. Performance tests were done and their results have been compared with those of the non-circulation type. The distillation efficiency was considerably improved, especially at lower solar insolation, and its performance characteristics became more stable to irradiation changes.
