Solar energy is a natural and renewable source of energy. The shortage of drinking water is gradually increasing day by day. As per govt. report in India, drinking water will exhaust in 2040.In this paper a parabolic concentrate with manual measurement system has been developed in association with single slope solar water distillation system for hot water generation in which concentrate is covered by a refractive mirror film which work as reflector. Copper tubes of different diameter for absorption of solar radiation are taken keeping constant focal length of collector so that maximum heat transfer can be achieved.
