Overview: This paper presents the characteristics of a solar desalination system based on the humidification-dehumidification principle. It has the following independent components: two solar collectors, an evaporator and a condenser. The first part of the study deals with the presentation of the designed and constructed components and in second part, a general mathematical model including the mechanism of heat and mass transfer in the various components of the present desalination system was developed. The theoretical results show that there exists an optimum mass flow rate ratio corresponding to a maximum fresh water product.
