Abstract
The performance and testing of a novel solar cooker has been described and compared with a solar oven and a hot box solar cooker. The uniqueness of the device is that it has a tilted absorbing surface so that more radiation can be obtained even during winter, therefore, two meals can be prepared in winter, while only one meal is possible in the hot box solar cooker because it has a horizontal absorbing surface. Simultaneously, there is no need of frequent tracking as compared to 1 h tracking for the hot box solar cooker and 30 min tracking for the solar oven. The overall efficiency of this improved hot box solar cooker is 24.6%. The payback period shows that use of the solar cooker is economical.
