Abstract

The continuous development of technology increases the demand of energy. Therefore the alternative devices are achieved which is based on renewable energy. Cooking is also having major portion of consumption of energy in developing countries. In this paper a thorough review of the literature on the box type solar cooker. This review paper contained the various researches attempt on box type solar cooker to increase the performance parameters. This review covers the historic overview of solar cooker. This paper has mentioned the thermal performance parameter such as efficiency, first and second figure of merit, power output etc. are used to compare the cooker’s performance. And a detailed description of various geometry parameter affecting performance of solar cooker such as booster mirrors, glazing, absorber plate, cooking pots and insulating material. This review also covers the detailed literature of the solar cooker’s performance parameter glazing of different types and also including the transparent insulating material.
