New CPC Type Solar Cooker to be Integrated in the Kitchen Wall

摘要

A solar box cooker is proposed and developed to operate on a kitchen wall, fixed to it. Access to the cooker is provided from the inside of the kitchen, while the optics responsible for energy delivery to the cooker plate remains on the outside. Using Non Imaging Optics, also known as CPC type optics, this cooker is compatible with a stationary use and can be combined with one extra lateral flat mirror, which will provide the necessary compensation for the sun's daily apparent motion, as well as for the fact that the kitchen wall may not be exactly due south (in fact it can take deviations from south at least as large 45 deg).
