ABSTRACT
The use of solar energy for cooking offers an alternative source of energy to the
high cost of petroleum products and the diminishing wood fuel products for
cooking and heating applications. An effective solar cooker is the one that can be
used throughout the day and in the evening when there is no sunshine. Most areas
in Kenya can be considered as a high potential solar energy area because Kenya is
located on the equator. Most of the solar cooker designs do not have thermal
storage systems and can be used for cooking when there is sunshine and cannot be
used during cloudy weather or in the evening. The aim of this study was to design
and assess the performance of a double reflector solar box cooker with an energy
storage unit. The use of phase change materials (PCMs) as a technique of storing
energy was used to overcome the time mismatch between solar availability and
demand. The PCM used in this study is acetanilide with a melting point ranging
from 113 to 116 °C. The box cooker was designed so that the length to width ratio
for the reflector and the glass window was 4:1. This eliminated the azimuth
tracking towards the sun. Three sets of experiments were carried out, one without
loading the cooking pot of the cooker, one with water as the cooking load and one
with different actual cooking loads in the School of Engineering and Technology
Demonstration Center, Kenyatta University. The measured parameters included,
the solar radiation, ambient air temperature, temperatures of the different
components of the solar cooker, load temperature and wind speed. The data
values were read and recorded by use of a data logger at regular intervals of 10
minutes. Data analysis was done using statistical measures. An average stagnation
temperature of 85.9 ± 24.0 °C and 82.7 ± 24.3 °C was achieved in the two pots.
The average solar radiation was 637.1 ± 212.0 W/m2. The cooking power tests
achieved a coefficient of performance of 0.754. The results showed that the
double reflector solar cooker with energy storage can be used to cook meals
throughout the day and in the evening. Noon cooking does not affect evening
cooking. The adoption of this study will be beneficial to Kenyans as it will
increase the acceptability of the solar cookers hence reduce the consumption of
wood fuel and petroleum products. This will reduce the rate of depletion of wood
resources, save time and reduce expenses for the user which could be diverted to
increased productivity and monetary gains thus raising the living standards and a
clean environment devoid of hazardous emissions associated with wood and fossil
fuel combustion.

energy. More than 70% of Kenya′s energy is directly supplied by wood fuel or
charcoal (Bhagavan and Karekezi, 1992, Mugo and Kituyi, 2002). See Fig 1.

The demand for wood fuel, charcoal combined with the high cost of kerosene has
pushed the low income earners residing in towns to use charcoal as the cheaper
option. The use of liquid petroleum gas (LPG) and electricity for cooking and
lighting is out of reach to most Kenyans due to the high cost. Wood energy is
becoming scarce and more expensive and is of great concern since the depletion of
Petroleum fuels are the most important source of commercial energy in Kenya, and
are mainly used in the transport, commercial and industrial sectors. Kenya has no
fossil fuel resource and relies entirely on imported petroleum products (Ministry of

Kenya is located along the equator. It lies between latitudes 5oN and 4.5oS and
longitudes 34oE and 43oE of the Greenwich meridian (Natural Atlas of Kenya,
1991). Annual total solar radiation on a horizontal surface is highest near the
equator; It is over 2000 KWhours per square meter per year (KWhm-2 per year),
especially high in sunny desert areas (Boyle, 2004). Solar cookers use solar

important role in conserving energy. The effects of solar energy on the economy

diseases due to indoor air pollution. With the rising cost of petroleum products and

Solar cookers offer an alternative to wood fuel stoves in areas where fuel is scarce
and solar energy is in plenty. Solar energy systems for cooking and heating have
been in the market for several years but are out of reach in the rural areas and in
industries in developing countries due to its high cost of installation as well as the
limitation of not operating at night and during cloudy weather conditions (Sharma
The demand for energy is time based, since people’s need for energy varies from
season to season and from day to night. This cyclic nature of both supply and
demand for energy has created the need for energy storage (Sulaiman and
Inambao). There is a mismatch between availability of solar energy and the need
If storage of solar energy can be provided in a solar cooker, then food can be
cooked during cloudy weather or in the late evening, and the storage would
increase the utility and reliability of solar cookers, thus providing a solution for
correcting the difference between supply and demand of solar energy (Sharma et
al., 2000; Ravikumar and Srinivasan, 2005-2008). Thermal energy can be stored
The use of phase change materials (PCM) for storing the heat in the form of latent
heat has been recognized as one of the areas to provide a compact and efficient
storage system due to their high storage density and constant operating
temperature (Buddhi and Sahoo, 1997). In this study a box cooker with latent heat
Cooking using wood fuel and charcoal accounts for a major share of energy
consumption in developing countries including Kenya. Wood based fuels are the
main source of energy for rural communities. Woodfuel is the major source of
cooking energy in Kenya, accounting for about 70 per cent of the net energy
supply (Bhagavan and Karekezi, 1992) The demand is expected to rise from 35
2004). This has and will continue to lead to depletion of forest cover with serious
increase in the level of greenhouse gas emissions and the rise in the fuel prices are
the main driving force behind efforts to effectively utilize various sources of
renewable energy resources (Sharma et al., 2009). Solar energy is freely available
in remote places with little access to conventional energy supplies. Solar cookers
are good substitutes for cooking with firewood, and reducing deforestation and

gather woodfuel and the user does not have to pay to utilize the energy source. A
decrease in fossil fuel consumption would help alleviate the pollution hazards
associated with the conversion of these fuels to energy. It will also eliminate the
need to import millions of barrels of oil, save our forests from deforestation and
The adoption of this study would provide a solution to the cooking energy problem
by utilizing solar energy in Kenya. Effects of solar energy on the economy are

2.1 Introduction
The use of solar energy for cooking dates back to the eighteenth century when
Nicholas –de Saussure (1740-1799), designed the first box-type cooker (Kundapur,
1998). Since then many designs of solar cookers have been fabricated. In 1956,
Gosh designed a box cooker with one reflector, known as the Gosh cooker. Others
who have designed the hot solar box cooker include Teikes (1559); Garg (1976);
Nahar (1990); and Nahar et al, (1994). Solar cookers offer an alternative to
woodfuel in areas where fuel is scarce and solar energy is plenty. This review
covers the domestic cooking technologies with special attention to solar cooker
Kenyan households depend mainly on four main sources of energy for cooking.
These are woodfuel (fuelwood and charcoal), kerosene, electricity and liquefied
petroleum gas (LPG) (Bhagavan and Karekezi, 1992). The high cost of petroleum
products and electricity has made them out of reach of the low income households.
For about 75% of the population living in the rural areas, woodfuel is the
predominant source of energy, accounting for over 95% of the total household
fuelwood, while in urban areas households depend on charcoal with the former
accouting for 80%, and the latter 15% (Bhagavan and Karekezi, 1992,

collection, high nutritional value of the cooked food and high durability of the
cookers (Muthusivagami et al., 2010). Solar cookers are heat exchangers designed
to use solar energy in the cooking process. All solar cookers use the basic
principles of concentrating light and heat from the sun into a small cooking area,
converting light to heat and trapping the heat by isolating the air inside the cooker
from the air outside the cooker using the Greenhouse Effect.
The efficiency of Solar cookers increases with the temperature of the heat source.
and Beckman, 1991). Solar cookers are broadly categorized under two groups:
Solar cookers without energy storage and solar cookers with storage.
There are over 60 major designs of solar cookers which can be classified into three
categories. These are the concentrator type, the box-type designs (direct type) and
2010).
container. The most common reflector geometries are flat plate, disc and parabolic
trough type. These designs cook faster and at higher temperatures (up to 350°C)
Concentrating cookers reach high temperatures up to 350°C and can cook any type
of food as well as conventional cookers. They are difficult to construct and have a
hazardous glare at the focal point requiring the cook to wear sun glasses to protect
the eyes. The concentrator requires frequent adjustment to track the sun and the
solar cookers.

A box type cooker is a double walled box container. The space between the two
boxes is filled with insulation. A double- glazed door is incorporated on top of the
insulated box. The food is placed inside the inner box. Reflectors can be added to
increase the efficiency of the box cooker (Kundapur, 1998; Wikipedia, 2011). The
solar box cooker typically reaches a temperature of 150°C (300°F) and food can be
Solar box cookers have been widely accepted in India and other counties where
there is a shortage of energy and pressure on biomass resources. Hot solar box
cookers are simple in terms of fabrication, handling, operation, cheap and effective
with minimal attendance required during the cooking process (Hussein et al,
2008); (Muthusivagami et al., 2010).
The cookers are more stable, can keep food warm for a long time. Cookers do not
produce glare and have no risk of fire and burns. The performance of the hotbox
solar cooker with a single reflector is very good but it requires tracking towards
the sun every 60 minutes while one with two reflectors requires tracking every 180
minutes (Kundapur, 1998). Figures 4 and 5 are photographs of some of the box
Indirect solar cookers use solar radiation to heat a thermal fluid that transports the
heat to the place of the cooking process (Hussein et al., 2008). The indirect solar
cooker consists of a central pipe containing a heat transfer fluid which is heated by

The PCM for use in thermal storage systems should have the following thermal
properties which include; suitable phase transition temperature, high latent heat of
phase equilibrium, high density, small volume change and low vapor pressure.
Economic properties include; abundant, available and cost effective (Sharma et al,

based on the melting temperature, the latent heat of fusion, density and other
Latent heat storage materials are further classified according to the phase change
as follows: gas - liquid, solid – gas, solid to solid and solid – liquid. Solid – gas
and liquid – gas transitions though have higher latent heat of phase transition, but
their large volume changes on phase transition are associated with containment
problems and rule out their potential utility in thermal storage systems. Solid –
liquid transformations have comparatively smaller latent heat than liquid – gas but

low thermal conductivity and are inflammable. Inorganic materials have great
phase change enthalpy but undergo corrosion, phase separation, phase segregation

Few studies have been conducted with latent heat storage materials to cook food in
the late evening. Domanski et al., (1995) used magnesium nitrate hexahydrate
(Mg(NO3)2.6H2O) as a PCM for heat storage medium for a box type solar cooker
designed to cook food in the evening hours and non- sunshine hours. Budhi and
Sahoo (1997) designed a solar cooker with latent heat storage for cooking food in
the evening. They used commercial-grade stearic acid (melting point 55.1 °C/ and
latent heat of fusion of 160kJ/kg) as PCM and filled it below the absorber plate of
Buddhi and Sharma (1999) and Sharma et al., (2000) designed and developed a
cylindrical PCM storage unit for a box type solar cooker to cook food in the late
evening. They used acetamide (melting point 82°C) as the latent heat storage
material. According to their experimental results the storage of solar energy for
evening cooking did not affect the performance of the solar cooker for noon
cooking and they recommended that for evening cooking, the melting temperature
of a PCM should be between 105 and110°C. Buddhi et al., (2003) designed and
developed a storage unit with acetanilide for a box type solar cooker to store a
24
larger quantity of solar energy. A cylindrical latent heat storage unit for the
cooking pot and a solar box cooker with three reflectors was used. The three
reflectors were fitted with a mechanism to allow for the tracking of the sun and to
keep the reflected solar radiation on the absorber surface. Sharma et al., (2005)
used erythritol as a latent heat storage material for solar cooker based on an

In this study a solar box cooker with two reflectors and an energy storage unit

The box unit consists of a double walled box. The inner and outer boxes were
made of black sheet metal. Nahar (1998) recommended that the dimensions of the
box are such that the ratio of length to width of the reflectors and glass window be
about 4 to 1. This allows maximum radiation to fall on the glass window and it
The dimensions of the outer box are 2200×650×280 mm and of the inner box are
2000×450 ×180 mm. Kundapur (1995) suggested that the depth of the inner box
should not be more than 10-15 cm. This depth is a critical parameter as a greater
depth would introduce a shade effect, but the width and breadth could be of any
dimension. The space between the two boxes was maintained at 10 cm and was
Limited Nairobi. The width of the gap between the two boxes varies with the type
of insulation used. Fibreglass provides adequate insulation with a gap size of less
than 6 cm, but it posses health risks because it inflames the respiratory track.
Styrofoam would make a lightweight box due to it low density but it melts at
relatively low temperatures. Concrete or brick are commonly available and are
recommended for small cooking units but have high density therefore not suitable
as they would increase the weight of the entire system. The inner side of the box
was painted black. Two clear window glass panes 4mm thicknesses were fixed
over the box with an openable wooden frame. The absorber area covered 0.90 m2

cooker. This provides more surface area and, hence, makes the heat transfer more
effective (Reddy and Narasimha 2007; Sharma et al, 2005). Two small holes
about 2 mm diameter were drilled on the top side of the PCM storage unit on
opposite sides (see Fig 10) through which the thermocouple wires were passed
through to take the temperature of the PCM. Another hole 1.5cm diameter was
drilled on the top side of the PCM storage unit through which the PCM was put
and later was fitted with an overflow pipe in case of PCM overflow. The cooking
pot was designed to fit into cylindrical space. Figure 10 shows the photograph of

The choice of the PCM was based on melting temperature, latent heat of fusion,
density and other considerations such as toxicity, corrosiveness and cost (Sharma
et al, 2005). Kenisarin and Mahkamov (2007) and Ravikumar and Srinivasan

Salt hydrates have a high latent heat of fusion per unit volume and have relatively
high thermal conductivity. The main limitation of salt hydrates is their chemical
instability. When heated to high temperatures they degrade, losing some water
content every heating cycle (Kenisarin and Mahkamov, 2007). When used as
PCM, salt hydrates have a tendency to supercool and do not melt congruently so

3.5 Glazing
The most important property of glass is transparency to visible light and short-
wave infrared radiation but opaque to long wave infrared re-radiation from a solar
collector or a building behind it (Boyle, 2004). Glass does not degrade in sunlight
and if protected from thermal stains and impacts, it is more durable than most
plastic glazing, even those that are treated against degradation by ultra-violet rays
(Wikipedia, 2011). Glass remains the most frequently used cover material because
particularly for glass with low iron content, little of the long wave thermal
radiation emitted by the absorber is transmitted out of the collector (Norton and
Lo, 2006). One clear window glass pane 4mm thickness was fixed over the box on
the upper side of an openable wooden frame and a transparent heat tempered glass
of thickness 5 mm on the inner side of the box. The space between these two panes
of glass is critical, and was maintained 2cm (Kundapur, 1998). The air gap also
acts as an insulator.

Two 4mm thick plane mirrors with dimensions 644 mm by 1994 mm were fixed
on the same side of the box adjacent to each other. The cooker was designed in
such a way that the width to length ratio for reflectors and glass window was about
1 to 4 so that maximum radiation falls on the glass window. This design eliminates
azimuth tracking. The cooker was always kept facing the equator (Nahah, 2009).
3mm by 644 mm by 199 4mm. The mirrors were held in position by bolts fixed
through hole drilled on the angle line frame. Hinges were used to adjust the mirror
angles to the required tilt angles with a maximum of 120o for the lower reflector
and 165o for the upper reflector depending on the season and its tilt was fixed once
in a fortnight (Nahah, 2009). The angles were derived from the Winston’s edge ray
principle (Winston and Welford, 1978) The reflectors concentrated solar radiation
on the receiver which increased the efficiency, and hence the reliability of the box
cooker (Kundapur, 1998). Figure 11 shows the reflector assembly and Figure 12
show the experimental set up of the solar box cooker with reflectors and pots in
place. Appendix B-F shows drawings of the experimental set up of the solar box

Figure 13 shows the cooker support structure which was fabricated from mild steel
dimensioned on the top side of the structure to accommodate the cooker of size
2200 mm by 650 mm. Clusters were fitted at the bottom of the four corners of the
support structure. This made it convenient for the whole cooker setup to be moved
from one place to another with ease especially when changing it to face the north
or south pole for the reflectors to face the sun throughout the day.

Tests were conducted under various weather conditions from September 2010 to
January 2011. The measured parameters included temperature, solar irradiance and
the wind speed. The cooking power tests were done according to ASAE, (2003)

cooking should be conducted when the wind speed is less than 1.0m/s at the
elevation of the cooker. Wind speed exceeding 2.5m/s for more than 10 minutes
should be discarded (Kundapur, 1998 and ASAE S580, 2003). This helps in
maintaining a heat loss coefficient close to the natural convection loss coefficient
The effective cooking power was used as the primary figure of merit to represent
thermal performance for the box cooker. The test was conducted according to the

According to Funk (2000), the heat loss increases with the difference in
temperature between the solar cooker interior and the cooker’s surroundings. The

irradiance (I) and the wind speed (Ws) measured at 10 minutes interval for 12
hours (from 10.00 - 20.00hrs). The raw data retrieved from the data logger (Model

About 60 tests were conducted under various weather conditions to determine the
performance of the double - reflector box cooker with energy storage. Statistical
methods were used to analyse the data from selected experiment conducted when
the sky was clear. These included recording and summarizing the collected data in
appropriate tables, calculating the mean and standard deviation, regression lines, as
well as plotting the relevant graphs. Summarized data from selected experiments

and solar radiation with time. The ambient temperature increased progressively to
a maximum of 28.0 °C due to the accumulation of heat on the earth’s surface with
812.3W/m2 at mid-day when the sun was overhead and the solar radiation being
perpendicular to the earth’s surface. The average ambient temperature and solar

thermal performance for the box cooker. The average water temperature (°C)

recorded every 10 minutes. The Cooking Power, P, was given by equation 3.3.

The standardized cooking power provides insight into the cooker’s ability to cook
food and is used by consumers as a tool for comparison and cooker selection. The
standardized cooking power values were given by equation 3.4. The standard
cooking power was taken from the regression line for a temperature difference Td
value of 50 °C. Table 3 shows pots performance on different days in terms of the
regression equation coefficients and the standardized cooking power for the two
pots P1 and P2. The Y-intercepts represent the initial cooking power which
depends on the average solar radiation, cooker design as well as the wind speed.
The slope of the cooking power regression line correlates to the heat loss
coefficient. The slope and the intercept values are independent of each other
(Funk, 2000). Figure 15 shows the variation of the cooking power curves for the
different pots on the same day. The slopes of the cooking power regression line are
almost the same on the same day because the two pots were subjected to the same
for each cooker and date are presented in Table 3. Pots P1 without the PCM

This can be attributed to the fact that the pots with the PCM require more heat to
heat the PCM to raise its temperature to its melting point as well as heating the
water. The data in table 3 was recorded within a period of about 2 hours which can

This is done by combining observations from at least three days (ASAE, 2003 and

regression should be higher than 0.75 (Funk P. A., 2000 and ASAE S580, 2003).
The experimental value satisfies the standard. The value could have been higher
but due to factors like the increasing influence of radiative heat loss at elevated
56
temperatures and the position of the cooker in relation to the nearby building and
trees which could have brought the shade effect thus increasing the heat loss
coefficient. As the temperature of the black cooking vessels and black interior of
cooker differ appreciably from their surroundings, the radiative loss increases

The stagnation air temperature inside the cooking pots was recorded for cooker
with PCM and compared with the one without the PCM. Figure 17 illustrates the
variation of the stagnation temperatures with time without the cooking load. . The
solar radiation reaches a maximum of 800 W/m2 around 13.00 solar time. The
temperature rise was slightly faster in the cooker without the PCM compared to the
one with the PCM up to around 14.00 solar time This is due to the fact that the
PCM takes in some energy in form of sensible heat to raise its temperature. When
it reaches its melting point this energy is stored as latent heat as it melts. After
14.00 solar time the solar radiation decreases with time as the sun rays are no
longer perpendicular to the receiver’s surface. The temperature of the pot without
the PCM heats up faster and reaches a maximum of 122°C because it doesn’t
have a load to heat but drops faster than the one with the PCM. This can be
58
attributed to the fact that the energy stored in the PCM does not reduce when the
solar radiation decreases but is decreases slowly as it is released when the PCM
solidifies. This figure of merit is useful for determining alternative materials for
construction of the cooker and also dictates the type of cooking that can occur
(baking or boiling).
Figure 18 gives a comparison between the pot temperatures (P1and P2) and the
stagnation temperature inside the pots (FTP1 and FTP2) on a typical clear sky
condition. Of importance to note is that the temperature inside the pots was higher
than the cooking unit temperature. This is attributed by the fact that the pots are
Figure 19 gives a comparison between the cooking unit temperatures (P1and P2)
and the stagnation temperature inside the pots (FTP1 and FTP2) on a typical cloudy
weather condition. The average solar radiation and ambient temperature recorded
for the day was 591.2 ± 266.0 W/m2 and 25.7 ± 1.5 °C. The maximum cooking unit
This indicates that the PCM did not melt and no energy was stored in form of
latent heat. The pot could not be used for evening cooking on such a day. The
highest temperature inside the pots FTP1 and FTP2 was 108.6 °C and 104.3 °C
During the evening cooking the solar cooker was exposed to solar radiation from
10:00am to 16:00pm At 16.00pm the temperature inside the pots were 117.6°C for
the pot in the PCM cooking unit and 103.6°C for the pot in the cooking unit

without the PCM. The pots were then loaded with food 0.5 kilogram rice and
I kilogram water. Figure 20 shows the temperature profile in the cooking pots. At
16:00 the temperature in the cooking pots dropped sharply to 24°C which was the
initial temperature of the food. The temperature of the food in the pot with the
cooking unit which has the PCM rose to a maximum of 91°C while in the unit
without the PCM; the maximum food temperature was 53.8°C. At 18.00pm the
food in the pot with a cooking unit with the PCM was well cooked while that of
the cooker unit without PCM was not cooked. The energy stored in the PCM as it
melted was released during the cooking process. According to (Hussein et al,
2008) the lowest temperature for cooking most kinds of food is about 75°C.
It has been shown that nearly all the energy required to cook food is spent in the
sensible heating stage as the food reaches the cooking temperature (Mullick et al,
1978). Once this has occurred, the energy input required to continue cooking is
very small. Its primary purpose is to offset heat loss and maintain the food at the
cooking temperature.

this study does not require tracking of the sun since the length to width ratio equal
Based on experience, it was assumed that the solar cooker can cook two meals
during a clear sky weather condition and one meal per day on cloudy weather
condition. It was assumed that this cooker will cook two meals for 243days (one
during the day and one in the evening) and one meal per day for about 61 days in a
thickly populated countries are blessed with abundant solar radiation with a mean
daily solar radiation in the range of 5-7 KWh/m2 and have more than 275 sunny
days in a year. The cooker can cook 4 dishes simultaneously. Therefore it can cook
for 12 people per meal. According Nahah, (2009) the energy for cooking per
person is about 900 kJ of fuel equivalent per meal. Considering it will save 50% of
67
the cooking fuel per meal, it saves 5.4 MJ of energy per meal and 4266 MJ per
year.
Life Cycle Costing (LCC) is the sum of all costs associated with an energy

Saving (LCS) is the difference in the present worth between the LCC of
conventional or alternative fuel system and the LCC of the solar energy system.
These two were used in this economic analysis of the cooker. They are considered
useful in economic analysis of solar energy systems (Duffy and Beckman, 1991).

5.1 Conclusions
The double reflector solar box cooker with energy storage was designed and
constructed as explained in chapter three. The Experimental data was collected for
5 months, from September, 2010 to January 2011. The performance of the solar
box cooker with two reflectors and a PCM energy storage unit was investigated in
terms of the cooking power and the actual cooking experiments. From the results
obtained and the analysis of the data, the following conclusions were drawn;

for use in solar cookers which includes, a high density, little or no supper cooling
during freezing and within the desired operating temperature range between 1050C
2. The cost of the PCM is quite high. This makes the application of PCM in solar
cookers out of reach to ordinary people. More research need to be carried out to
