1. Introduction
Solar cooking is often associated with Crockpot,
or slow cooking.
Cooking times for most solar cookers are typically
twice that for conventional cooking methods.
Less water is used than with conventional
cooking.
By leading the sun orientation a little and adding
a bit more cooking time, solar cookers can be set
and left to cook unattended.
Parabolic solar cookers reach higher
temperatures requiring more attention to the
cooking food.
They need to be reoriented to the sun
approximately every fifteen minutes, which can
be done automatically if they are equipped with
a solar tracking device.

2.How do solar cookers work?

Solar

cookers work on the basic principle:

Sunlight is converted to heat energy that
is retained for cooking.

Most

basic solar panel cookers and solar

box cookers can reach 120C (250F). The
captured sunlight passes through a
greenhouse enclosure enclosing a dark
colored cook pot. As it hits the dark
surface, the sunlight is converted to heat,
which can not escape the enclosure, and
cooking temperatures are achieved.

Sunlight

is the fuel.
A solar cooker needs an outdoor spot that
is sunny for several hours and protected
from strong wind
Solar cookers dont work at night or on
cloudy days.

Plastic Film Concept of Green

House Effect

1. Apply the concept of Green House Effect

2. Purposely to trap the heat from reflected back
out from the solar cooker
3. By using this material, solar cooker can get the
better and high temperature during sunny time
(11.00pm 1.00pm)
