Part 7/9:
To best mimic desert conditions, a box was assembled to hold the apparatus and the sand, and fog was created using specialized equipment. When powered, the system produced observable results that indicated the efficiency of water collection. A stark delineation of wet sand beneath the system showcased the mechanism's effectiveness in producing usable water, underscoring its potential for agricultural applications.
An Efficient Water Production Model
Assessing the overall efficiency of this fog condenser, it was found to draw a mere 39 watts of power, generating nearly 540 milliliters of water per hour. In a comparative analysis against a commercial dehumidifier, the stakes proved to be eight times more efficient, emphasizing their practicality for solar power applications.
