Solar water purification system is new concept in thermal industry .It is vary nearer to the natural purification of water which include vaporization and condensation of water. Solar energy is used to make vapour from stored water .Vapour particles collects on inclined glass and flew down following the condensation process. Condensed water is collected in the container .Performance of purification depends upon many controllable and uncontrollable factors in which water temperature, ambient temperature ,glass plate temperature ,inclination of glass ,humidity and water quantity are some factors. Recent economics research has focused on developing the reliable machinery database to ensure optimum design. In this research process parameters have been optimize for best performance of solar water purification system by Taguchi optimization technique. Larger is better option has been taken for the analysis three parameters water temperature (WT),glass plate temperature (GT) and quantity of water (QW) are taken and level of parameter are three (Lower, Medium, High). Degree of freedom of parameter is six which is suitable for L9 orthogonal array for three independent parameter. Performing with all nine set of parameter amount of TDS have been observed. The study includes selection of parameters, utilizing an orthogonal array, conducting experimental runs, data analysis, determining the optimum combination. Finally the experimental verification has been done. Experimental results are provided to illustrate the proposed approach. Finally we derived a mathematical model for maximum performance with the help of MATLAB software. After the whole work comparative analysis of results from different theories has been done in which we found that all results are approximately similar. Hence author concluded that the values of parameters can be selected for other vital experiment on the basis of mathematical model generated by this research
