The College of Engineering / Mosul discussed the research project for the Higher Diploma in Power Mechanics Engineering Techniques tagged Analyzing the performance of the extended finned single-slope solar still in the climatic conditions of the city of Mosul – an experimental study performance Analysis of Single Slope Single Basin Solar System with Extended Fins in Mosul Climatic Conditions: an Experimental Study.

The research project submitted by the student (Mohamed Aqil Mahmoud Fattah) showed the design and work of a single-slope solar still performance device and efficiency in producing distilled water by 15.75% greater than the traditional solar water distiller product. The increase in the productivity of the modified solar water distillation device is attributed to Increasing the surface area of ​​the basin. On the other hand, it was found that the efficiency of the modified solar water distillation device is 12.75% higher than the traditional one.

The objective of the project:- Fabrication of a single-slope solar water distillation device with an extended finned basin by adding the fins to a conventional solar water distiller basin and it was tested experimentally in the laboratories of the Northern Technical University / Technical College of Engineering in October.

A part of the discussion was attended by the Dean of the College, Prof. Dr. Majed Khaleel Najm, and several college professors and graduate students. The discussion committee consisted of:

1. A.M.D. Abdul Rahman Habo Muhammad / Chairman.
2. MD Nabil Mikhlif Abdul Razzaq / Member.
3. A.M.D. Omar Rafe Mahmoud / member and supervisor.
