Renewable Energy, 1996, vol. 7, issue 4, 419-425

Abstract: A program to develop, test and evaluate a solar cooker was carried out with the primary objective of its suitability as an alternative means of cooking using sun rays. Factors considered in the evaluation of the solar cooker include the maximum temperature attained, time taken to boil rice, time taken to cook a variety of Malay dishes, ease of use, portability, material cost and ease of manufacture. Initially a box type solar cooker was developed using improvised materials. The evaluation of the solar cooker based on the test results, the feasibility and possible modification in the design to improve the efficiency is discussed.
