Drinking water is one of the most significant needs for sustaining human life like air. Water consumption are continuously increasing due to the rapid industrialization and growth of the world population. Clean water sources, therefore, have started to become insufficient. Especially, clean water shortages in countries with arid climate are in larger sizes. Many countries located in arid climatic zones are in contact with the sea. But salty sea water is not suitable for drinking and agricultural purposes. By desalination, sea water can be used for these purposes. The considerable part of drinking water demands can be met by this way. The history of desalination is based on very old civilization. There are various methods for obtaining drinking water from sea water by desalination. In the application of these methods, different energy resources can be used. In this study, solar energy is used as the energy source and evacuated tube solar collector is used for obtaining drinking water by a new design greenhouse type desalination system. The novel desalination system is well defined in detail in the paper. The results show that the amount of clean water obtained increases when the solar radiation increases. The maximum amount of clean water is obtained as 467 ml in one-hour period for 944,32 W/m solar radiation and 27 C ambient temperature.
