Abstract: A Fresnel type domestic SPRERI concentrating cooker was designed and developed. The cooker has an aperture area of 1.5 m2 and a focal length of 0.75 m and was found to provide an adequate temperature needed for cooking, frying and preparation of chapatis. The cooker was found capable of cooking food for a family of 4 to 5 persons. Details of development of this cooker and the tests conducted are given in this paper.
