Abstract

The amount of energy resources from fossil fuels continue to decrease, these lead to high demand for renewable energy. One of the biggest energy resources in our nature is solar power. A solar cooker is a device that uses solar power to cook a meal. The performance and temperature of solar cookers depend on the material we use in the device. One of the most important components in solar cooking is reflector because solar cookers use a mirrored reflector to collect and transfer sun rays into the cooking pot to increase the temperature inside the pot. This paper compares two different materials as a reflector in solar cookers. The first reflector is aluminum foil tape, these materials are very cheap, light, easy to use so it could be applied in many designs. The Second reflector used was zincalume steel, it has the highest reflector among other thin steel available in the market. The design of panel reflector from aluminum foil tape was 4 rectangular and the design of zincalume steel reflector similar to cone. The performance of two different reflectors has been analyzed in Solar cookers used to boil 500ml water for 120 minutes. Water temperature from the first and the second reflector showed a similar result. It showed that reflector made from aluminum foil tape and zincalume steel has similar reflectivity.
