Abstract

By looking at the scarcity of fossil fuel and its polluting nature, there is a need to find out, other sources of energy for different application. For solar cooking and steam generation application, different solar collectors are there but its use is limited and it is not commercially accepted so it becomes necessary to find some alternate way of heating in solar cooker. So, in this work one solar collector is developed and tested for maximum temperature achieved and finally its feasibility for solar cooker application is checked.
