Solar Parabolic Cooker

The AN14 Parabolic Solar Cooker uses sunrays directed on to a reflecting surface, which concentrates at a focal point on which the black painted cooking pot is placed.
The tracking position towards sun is monitored with the help of a tracking indicator attached to the cooker, tracking every 10-15 minutes for higher efficiency.
High temperature is achieved in this cooker and generates about 700 watts net power in good sunshine. Very high temperature above 300°C can be attained in this cooker.
Ten liters of water in a sunny day (atmospheric temperature 24°C) takes about 40-45 minutes to reach the boiling temperature of 100°C.
Almost all types of cooking such as boiling of waterpotatoeggs, cooking of ricepulsesvegetablesmeat, frying of omelets meat, roasting of meat, baking of breadcake, etc., can be done in this cooker. Also the pressure cooker can be used for increased efficiency.
Minimum maintenance: It does not require any recurring cost except a nominal maintenance of repainting the frame and stand and keeping the reflector sheet clean.
The cooker can be used all day long from sunrise to sunset. The cooking intensity is high during daytime from 11.0 am to 1.0 pm because of the high sunshine during that time.
Due to its deeply curved parabolic shape, the focal point of the reflectors lies inside the dish and does not have the risk of burning to the user.
