Opis

The cooking is an integral part of an every human being and food is the basic need for the living. Firewood, crop residue, cow dung cake, kerosene, electricity, biogas and LPG are commonly used as energy source for cooking. This work is an attempt to develop a solar cooker to use in kitchen and solar heat energy is transferred by servothermic (thermic) fluid. The details of the design and development of the solar cooker using thermic fluid was carried out. The performance evaluation of cooker also carried out and compared with the performance of the other types of the solar cookers. It has been observed that the energy conversion efficiency of cooker is somewhat lower but the inconvenience of using outdoor solar cooker and indoor air pollution by using other fuel cooking systems can be avoided.
