Review of the non-concentrating solar cookers with innovative absorber plates designs

Abstract

Preparation of meals has been named as one of the leading factors that affect the consumption of energy consumed globally as well as global emissions of greenhouse gases. Still due to these reasons that solar cooking is cheap and can be done at large scale, it is appropriate. To discuss the plan of cheap solar cookers, this paper gives an introduction of them, namely; box cooker with or without. In a free and natural way without panels, funnels or reflectors. Other designs that encompass virtually all kinds of the solar cooker also included are Fresnel, indirect, and parabolic-dish and parabolic-trough types. Scope is discussed further. Heat conservation tips, performance criteria, cost aspects, and improvement processes for heating systems design. This also brings into focus a high temperature 24 hour indoor solar cooker.
