A composite unit of Fresnel lens concentrated solar water cum distillation unit, having a capacity of 70 liters was developed to perform the functions of water heating and distillation. In this system two insulated tanks with glass cover were fabricated where one was used for water heating and the second tank was for condensation of water vapour. Solar energy concentrated by Fresnel lens was absorbed by the plate and surrounding water contained in water heating tank was heated by this absorber plate's heat through conduction. Water vapour from hot water was condensed in dehumidification tank by the comparatively colder surfaces of copper tube used to feed fresh water and top slanting glass surface. Condensed water was collected in a collection trough. Overall efficiency of solar water heater was found to be 42.38 per cent and 27.48 per cent for distillation unit. The final hot water outlet temperature was 65.12 and the yield of distilled water was 4.72 kg/m2/day. The total cost of the composite unit was Rs. 7524.Keywords
