Design and Performance Analysis of Parabolic Dish Indoor Solar Cooker using Solar Thermal Simulator
Keywords:
Solar Energy, Indoor Solar Cooking, Simulator.Abstract
The present work in on indoor solar cooking application. The solar cooking can be classified as indoor and outdoor cooking. A parabolic dish indoor solar cooking system is proposed to design for cooking approximately 200 meals per day. The performance of the system is predicted using solar thermal simulator 2.0 and compared with theoretical analysis. The estimated energy requirement was found to be 42 kWh per day whereas in preliminary design analysis a 12 Sq.m dish collector is selected which would generates about 57.6 kWh of energy per day. The simulation predicts 61.1 kWh of energy output per day. Assuming 7 hours of system running with an operating pressure of 2 bar.
