Abstract
En 中文
• Experiments and simulations reveal the impact of design and operation in ME-PMD. • Multiple effect design improves GOR by 115–147%, varying with irradiance. • Low feed flow velocity in first effect significantly enhances flux. • Intermediate effect feed velocity exerts a trade-off in previous and current effect fluxes.
