Solar cookers are described that were tested for future use in developing countries. They consisted of a flat plate collector and one cooking unit with or without temporary heat storage. The goal was to develop inexpensive and efficient systems using materials available in developing countries. The tests showed that cooking with solar is comparable to cooking with electricity or gas and can be adapted to daily cooking processes, including broiling and baking.
