About this title

Synopsis

Energy crisis is a bottle neck in the supply of resources to any economy and issues surrounding energy supply are of paramount importance to governments world over.The present scenario of increasing shortages in the energy sector, depleting natural resources, ever increasing pollution and resulting eco-degradation and increasing stress on sustainable development programmes,have directed the scientists,technologists and administrators to hunt for alternate energy resources that are cost free and pollution free.Solar energy is a promising source for substantial future contribution to growing energy demands.This book presents a novel design of a hybrid solar oven with multiple reflectors and experimentation for its optimisation with innovative materials for maximum energy capture.This oven is unique in the sense that it can be used for cooking, roasting and baking purposes.Also this can be tracked and kept in two adjustable modes to face the sun in the F.N and A.N .Two meals /day can be prepared in this specially designed oven and is very useful for cooking.
