Experimental validation of MED forward feed steady-state model. In: Energy Procedia, 2014, Vol. 57, p. 2772-27801876-6102http://hdl.handle.net/10400.9/2161In this work the validation of a physical model to simulate the performance of an MED forward feed system is done by comparing results of the model with real data obtained. The data was obtained using the experimental MED plant at Plataforma Solar de Almeria (PSA) under steady-state operation near design conditions. The results indicate that the model can be used to make a first analysis on these type of systems. engDesalinationMulti-effect-desalinationSteady-state modelValidationAnalysisjournal article
