A simple, efficient solar cooker was designed and its performance in the Egyptian climate was evaluated. The cooker is of the hot box type with a plane booster mirror reflector. The performance of the cooker was measured experimentally for over two years under different working conditions. The test conditions included experiments with and without adjusting the cooker's position for maximum solar...
A simple, efficient mobile small-scale solar pond was designed and operated for several months to measure its thermal performance. The pond is a covered shallow saltless one, used with a boosting plane reflector for water heating. The pond was tested under several conditions including with and without adjusting the pond's position for maximum solar radiation and the booster reflector tilt angle...
