Yes, the larger the surface area of the solar collectors (either focused reflectors or concentrating lenses), the more solar energy is put into the oven. Same thing for a magnifying glass in the hot sun -- the larger the magnifying glass, the hotter the focused spot of sunlight will be.

However, if you are talking about the size of the oven itself (for example an oven that can cook one dish compared an oven for 100 loaves of bread), then clearly the larger the oven, the more energy you need to heat it. So the larger the oven part itself, the lower the heat for the same size reflectors. But usually large ovens have large solar collectors for this reason.

How much heat can solar pool heaters generate?

The specific amount of heat generated will depend on factors like the size of the solar panels or tubes used. But makers of solar pool heaters claim they can heat your pool completely, or cut back on hot water use by up to 97%. The amount of heat generated depends very much on where you live and how many hours of sunlight and clear skies you have each day. A solar pool heater will likely be more effective in New Mexico than it would be in Minnesota. Talk to an expert in your area for accurate information.
