Abstract: The top heat-loss factor (Ut) of a box-type solar cooker varies with plate temperature, wind heat-transfer coefficient and ambient temperature. A method for correlating Ut with these variables is presented for a cooker with double glazing. A set of equations is developed for correlating data obtained in indoor experiments at different plate temperatures and wind speeds.
