Reflectors and mirrors are used in solar cookers to concentrate sunlight onto the cooking vessel, increasing the amount of solar energy captured and improving the cooking efficiency. This helps to cook food faster and at higher temperatures, making the solar cooker more effective.
it's pretty safe to cook in a solar oven, but it can catch on fire just like any other oven
The population of Solar Cookers International is 5.
The three different types of solar cookers are box, panel,and parabolic.
No.
Solar cookers stop working at night, and work less well if the sky is heavily overcast.
A parabolic is an improved box cooker.

The intensity of heat (fire) needed for frying or making chapatis is not available in solar cookers.
South Africa is a relatively large country with a substantial rural population, so the potential for relatively simple and inexpensive solar cookers is high, but be warned you will need a method to market and distribute the solar cookers to the rural areas.
The main reflectors of solar energy include mirrors, shiny metal surfaces, and reflective films. These surfaces are designed to redirect and concentrate sunlight onto a specific target, such as a solar panel or thermal receiver, to enhance energy collection and conversion.
A concave mirror is commonly used in solar energy systems to concentrate sunlight onto a smaller surface area, such as in solar cookers or solar power plants. It is also used in reflecting telescopes to collect and focus light for astronomical observations.
