عملکرد حرارتی یک جمع کننده لامپ خلاء اجاق خورشیدی یکپارچه با لوله های انتقال حرارت حاوی مبردهای مختلف

A solar cooking system using vacuum-tube collectors with heat pipes containing a refrigerant as working fluid has been fabricated, and its performance has been analysed experimentally. The experiments were conducted during clear days in July and August of 2002 in Elazığ, Turkey under similar meteorological conditions for three refrigerants and water. Detailed temperature distributions and their time dependences were measured. The maximum temperature obtained in a pot containing 7 l of edible oil was 175 °C. Also, the cooker was successfully used to cook several foods. The cooking processes were performed with the cooker in 27–70 min periods.
