Definitions
- the goal of the present invention is a solar cooker, simultaneously of the box type and concentrator, by the explicit use of Non-Imaging Type Optics, also referred to as Ideal or of the Compound Parabolic Concentrator Type (CPC) , to cook food in temperature and power conditions higher than the ones used in conventional box cookers, but conserving and even improving the working characteristics of those cookers, in particular in what pertains to stationarity and control of cooking time.
- Another fundamental aspect of this invention is the achievement of great sophistication for the optics used together with low fabrication cost, from a materials point of view and from the point of view of the fabrication process, given the choice of plastic for both the external envelope and the inner cooker structure.
- the solution established by the present invention is the first one to allow the fabrication of solar cookers in large series production, with a thermal behaviour in the limits of what is possible for this type of cookers (more than double the efficiency achieved by conventional box types) , and with a lower cost .
- the present invention has still other applications, for instance in the pasteurisation of water or of other foodstuffs, like milk, and as a dryer.
- the first ones include a large set of different forms, variations on the idea of having a box with or without reflecting flat walls, a black bottom where the cooking vessels are placed, a transparent cover, single or double, to let solar radiation through and, at the same time, providing the necessary heat barrier to promote a temperature rise in the box.
- box geometry rectangular or square in cross section, cylindrical, spherical, etc.
- the second ones usually correspond to the use of parabolic reflectors in whose focal zone the cooking pot is directly placed, with or without a transparent envelope to improve the thermal performance of the concentrator.
- focusing concentrators concentrating solar radiation in a very substantial way onto the cooking vessel, requiring permanent tracking of the sun's position in the sky following its daily apparent motion, conserving the vessel permanently on the focal plane and concentrators of lesser concentration factor, requiring less tracking accuracy, surrounding the vessel in such a way that the focal spot moves on its surface during the cooking process.
- the ones in the first category can be truly stationary, but have the inconvenience of presenting a low global efficiency, a less efficient and lower power delivery of energy to the cooking vessel.
- the best on the market are produced with expensive materials and with characteristics designed to alleviate at least some of the referred deficiencies, but, as they are "hand produced” or, at best, in small series production, they remain an expensive product, thus with little value for the very large number of potential users in third world countries, presently and daily using wood, an ever scarcer resource, whose use is one of the main causes for the amazing and dangerous deforestation taking place on a world wide scale.
- the ones in the second category are less practical, demanding the presence of the cooker for the tracking of the concentrator, are usually more expensive and have serious inconveniences associated with the risks of concentrated radiation on the eyes of the user if they come inadvertently into the focal zone.
- the oven itself is independent from the solar energy collector, with the energy transferred to the first by means of a heating fluid or by optical means.
- thermal losses reduction is also achieved by the use of vacuum at some point of the system.
- the present invention introduces improvements in the state of the art of past technology, through a new product combining for the first time in an ideal way (ideal in the sense of Non- Imaging or CPC type Optics) the two basic approaches described above, being of the box type but also of the concentrator type with Non-Imaging Optics integrated in the box itself with an exterior augmenting reflector.
- This optics in contrast with the focusing one referred above, allows for solar radiation concentration without the need to track the sun in its apparent daily motion, resolving one of the inconveniences referred, at the same time allowing for more power and temperature into a box type cooker, as it is typical of the concentrating focusing types.
- augmenting reflectors on the back of the lid and lateral ones
- the side reflector only one and that can be placed on one side or on the other, is also a novelty, as usually solutions with reflectors on both sides are considered. Concentration is thus augmented and, above all, automatic control sunshine exposure duration is achieved, as the solar cooker is oriented such that the side reflector can cast a shadow once cooking time is exceeded.
- the outside structure, the box itself, and the inside one, the material substrate for the reflectors and bottom absorbing plate are made out of very low cost materials like plastic, with the outer one made to resist solar UV radiation, and the inner one in plastic made to resist temperatures in excess of 200°C.
- the verification that it was possible to produce this plastic has no precedent and constitutes also a relevant aspect of this invention. This characteristic allows:
- Figure 1 shows a longitudinal cut of the box cooker of the present invention with a plastic envelope 1, exhibiting the lateral walls of the internal structure in plastic 3 with reflectors 2' left and right 2'', with the typical curvature of a symmetrical CPC. It shows the existence of thermal insulation 2 between the interior and the exterior box for the control and significant reduction of thermal losses. It shows the existence of a double glass 4 (with upper glass 4 ' and lower glass 4 ' ' , being this last one laid on and glued through a silicon cord 6 which insulates it from the plastic 3 guaranteeing adhesion and tightness to the internal box volume. It also shows a flat bottom reflecting surface 12, as well as the bottom black absorbing plate, the heating of which is responsible for the functioning of the cooker. It also shows the peripheral plastic cover frame 7 that also ensures the fixation in place of the double glass cover.
- Figure 2 shows a transversal cross section of the cooker, exhibiting, beyond the characteristics already referred, the curvature of the front 5'' and back 5' walls, the curvature of another symmetric CPC. It also shows the lid 9 on which the augmenting/concentrating reflector 8 is fixed. These surfaces are defined according to criteria of optimisation of the solar energy collected in each day and the cooker's stationarity.
- the lateral CPC corresponds to an angle of 48° ⁇ 5° truncated to an height h (140 mm in a specific embodiment of this invention) , for a concentration of 1.15 + 000$00.1
- the asymmetrical frontal/bottom CPC corresponds to an acceptance angle from 60 ⁇ 5° to 65,5° ⁇ 5°, truncated at the same height h (140 mm in an embodiment of the present invention) , for a concentration of 1.12.
- Global concentration, internal to the box is, in this case, 1.29.
- the augmenting reflector 8 on the internal lid surface 9 is flat and hinges on an axis (signalled by the letter A) in order to take the appropriate tilt to accommodate solar height each day and during the day.
- An optimisation of the cooker optics in terms of collected energy shows that the curvature of the inner walls and of the lid must be optimised together and taking into consideration the transmissivity of the glass covers, the final result being, neither an exactly flat lid nor a curved inner wall shaped as part of an exact CPC.
- the gain thus obtained in comparison with that of the above embodiment is very small and the simplicity of fabrication of a flat reflector justifies this choice.
- the more general optimised ideal geometry of the CPC type is also an aspect of the present invention.
- the optimisation of solar energy collection referred above dictates an interior volume with a larger height.
- the lateral CPC corresponds to an angle of 45° ⁇ 5° truncated to an height h (180 ⁇ 20 mm in a specific embodiment of this invention), for a concentration of 1.16.
- the augmenting reflector 8 on the internal lid surface 9 is flat and hinges on an axis (signalled by the letter A) in order to take the appropriate tilt to accommodate solar height each day and during the day.
- a more square geometry to increase the lid reflecting area through the addition of a flat mirror that extends said reflecting area.
- Figure 3 shows the augmenting/shadow casting side reflector 11, placed on one side of the cooker, while the concept being proposed allows for the possibility of placing that reflector 11 on one side or the other of the cooker, depending on the time of the day and at the user's convenience.
- Figures 1, 2, 3 show the double glass transparent cover 4 and still the flat and reflecting bottom of the box 12 with the black absorber plate placed at a certain distance from that bottom.
- the black aluminium absorber plate 10 is placed (with a thickness preferably between 2 and 3 mm) ; that is the surface where the cooking vessels/food will be placed.
- This absorber plate is placed at a distance on the order of 1 cm above the bottom reflector 12, as a way to reduce thermal losses but also as a way to obtain a temperature difference essential to the survival of the plastic 3.
- temperature stagnation of the cooker a situation in which, without any load, the cooker is unintentionally exposed to solar radiation of maximal intensity in a day of high ambient temperature.
- This is another specific aspect of the present invention.
- Figure 4 shows another possible embodiment of the present invention, in which the glass cover 4 is tilted, with front 2 ' ' ' ' and back 2 ' ' ' inner walls corresponding to an asymmetric CPC whenever the exterior lid reflector 9 is flat 8' , or in general with a curvature corresponding to the optimised solution for the curvature of the exterior reflector that is chosen.
- Figure 5 shows a general view of another embodiment of the cooker of the present invention with the lid 9 open, exhibiting the inner structure 8' for the fixation of the reflecting sheet onto the inner surface of the lid, and the double transparent glass cover 4, with this specific embodiment showing a frontal door 14 for access to the inside of the cooker.
- the door 14 is also open and shows a curvature of the CPC type 5' ' , which defines it.
- This embodiment also has telescopic arms 13' and 13'', which serve to establish the adequate tilt for the lid reflector and for each day or instant during the day.
- the inner thermal plastic structure 3 has curvature adequate to the direct placement of the reflecting surfaces which will constitute the inner reflecting walls of the cooker 2, 5 as well as its bottom, also resulting from a flat reflecting sheet 12 placed over the thermal plastic.
- the electrical backup is realized in two distinct ways: 1) In the first and more conventional way it comes from a resistance, placed under the black plate (10) , fixed to it, with a control including a safety thermostat.
- FIG. 6 shows a specific embodiment of the present invention where CPC type optics is used for the electrical back up.
- the optical system thus described may be placed on either the left or the right side of the cooker, depending on which side is predominantly coming the solar radiation, since it is most conveniently placed where there will be more shadows, cast by the less active curved walls or by the cooking vessels.
- the area of the absorbing plate it illuminates may be smaller than the one covered above and which includes the whole plate. In the limit of the least possible optics, curves 16' and 17' may not exist.
- the lower face of the box 1 has feet that sustain the oven on a horizontal plane. There is a central foot slightly shorter than the others and which only serves to avoid too much deformation of the bottom due to excess load inside the cooker.
- the .feet are cylindrical .
- the solar cooker of the present invention may still have a solar clock, with its dial engraved on the glass (or otherwise) and with a shadow-casting gnome, designed for the local latitude.
- the solar cooker of the present invention with its lid closed has the appearance of a suitcase inside which one can easily transport cooking vessels, side reflector solar clock gnome, etc .
