New Cooker Designs
We have designed and built rwo new solar cookers
- The EB Suncooker is a powerful multi-sided double cone cooker that is relatively easy to build and use.
- The EB Parabolic is a 16 sided 45
inch (1.14 Meter) Parabolic cooker. We cooked with this cooker on the winter solstice in Massachusetts. It had
plenty of cooking power. More information on this cooker will be added to this site soon.
Some current projects
- Complete our 16 sided parabolic cooker and conduct instrumented tests of its performance.
- Continue to build and test EB Cooker Prototypes including a multisided hybrid Parabolic.
- Evaluate the performance of cookers using our data aquisition system
- Use ray tracing and/or optical methods to evaluate the performance of panel cookers
Other Solar Cooking Interests:
- Continue our search for better reflective materials
- Review the performance of other cookers
- Increase the power flow into box cookers by optimizng the size and orientation of reflectors.

container until the heat burned holes in the bag.
