Overview of sessions 1.Theory of Solar Energy/Cooking 2.Solar –v– Wood/gas 3.Design features of Solar Cookers 4.Case Study in Peru 5.Successful initiatives 6.Practical session

Who am I? – Nordson UV?

Links with Peru Peru Children’s Trust Shantytown in Peru

Why is Solar Cooking Important? 2,000 million cook with wood (TFL) 20-25,000km 2 of forest lost/year (UNEP) Contaminated water = 80% illnesses ARI (Acute Respiratory Infections) Solar Cooking = no wood & no smoke

Energy from the Sun? Solar Constant = 1367 W/m 2 Clear sunny day = 83% = 1134 W/m 2 Engineers= 1kW/m 2

Energy from the Sun?

Theory behind Solar Energy Low grade energy Collect/retain….. Box type cooker Magnification….. Parabolic cooker

Parabolic and Box Cookers

Wood/Gas – V – Solar Wood Burners or GasSolar Cookers DisadvantagesAdvantages Takes time to collect wood, and is using up natural resources. Solar energy is free Smoke filled rooms = ARI (Acute Respiratory Infections) Smoke free cooking

Wood/Gas – V – Solar Wood Burners or GasSolar Cookers AdvantagesDisadvantages Cook any time. Day/night/cloudy. Only cook when it is sunny. Gas is instantaneous and controllable. Box cookers take time to heat up. Parabolic cookers need frequent adjustment. Cook summer and winter.Need to store cooker in rainy season.

Parabolic – Design Features Size of reflector Reflectivity of reflector Accuracy of reflector Emmisivity of cooking vessel

Energy Calculations Area = 1 m 2 Power = 700 Watts 1 litre of water = 7 to 8 minutes Temperature at focus = 420 deg C. (small black thermocouple)

Box Cooker – Design Features Greenhouse principle Area of collection Transmission of glass/plastic Emissivity of cooking vessel Insulation of box WAPI (Water Pasteurisation Indicator)

SUNSTOVE ® Design Low cost enclosure Sloped side walls, scrap Aluminium Fibreglass insulation Clear glass/plastic cover 80 – 100 deg C 10,000 in SA & India

Parabolic – v – Box Cooker Parabolic CookerBox Cooker DisadvantagesAdvantages Needs frequent adjustment Adjust once an hour. More likely to be dazzled by reflected light. Much less reflected light. UnstableVery stable

Parabolic – v – Box Cooker Parabolic CookerBox Cooker AdvantagesDisadvantages Very high temperatures.Only 80 – 100 deg C. More like a BBQ or GrillCooking takes much longer. Easy to see it cooking quickly. Not too sure it is working! (WAPI – 65 deg C)

Trip to Peru 10 teenagers £30 of materials Woodwork Cardboard Metalwork Fun time

How did it go? Workshops Language! New skills Too small! Too big! Rainy season Years later….

What makes an Initiative Successful? Choosing the right design for the right location. Not this one for £750 in Australia!

What makes it successful? Over 4kWhr per m 2 per day. e.g. India, China, South Africa. Robust, easy to use. Perform well/efficient. Local materials. Very low cost.

Scheffler Design Community Kitchen - India

Refugee Camp - CooKit

What makes an Initiative Successful? Marketing & contacts with organisations Existing charities NGO’s – sustainable development Government initiatives Demonstrators – evangelists Local entrepreneurs Empowering the right people

Useful information (Practical Action)
