Abstract :
In recent years, due to population growth and the reduction of water resources, the human has forced to sweeten brackish water. While this work takes energy and high costs. Thus, the scientists studied a lot about solar desalination and the factors influencing them. In this study, we tried to have a review on the literature of numerical simulation of solar desalination systems with Assumptions: laminar natural convection, heat and mass transfer using finite volume method which presented by researchers who have been working in this field. This research is prepared for researchers who interested in this subject or those who intend to get acquainted of solar desalination systems, to have an appropriate reference for specialized study.
