This article investigate effect the adding three types of nanomaterials (titanium oxide, copper oxide and Nano aluminum oxide) at three concentrations (0.01, 0.05, 0.09) on the thermal performance of solar still, as these materials improve the evaporation rate. There are added to three stills designed with same dimensions and the measurements were recorded at the same time as well as to conventional solar without Nano material to compare the results. At the same time, we used sprinklers to cool of outer surface of glass and thus improve condensation rate. They work when of temperature difference between the inner and outer surfaces of glass is 3 degrees Celsius. They operate on the Arduino device and derive energy from a solar cell. The results showed that amount of potable water from solar stills enhanced with nanomaterials and sprinklers is much higher than the amount of water produced from the still from the traditional solar still.
