Some Examples of Parabolic Cookers

Background

Senior Environmental Science Majors Nick Hurn and Kevin Burks are creating a small parabolic mirror cooker to demonstrate the wide uses of alternation energy. It is part of an Spring 2013 ENGR305 class at Humboldt State University and will be featured at Jefferson Community Center in Arcata, California. The Parabolic cooker is created to harness the suns energy and transfer it directly into the cooking of raw material. It will serve as a functioning cooker to be used for lunches and activities for the students and staff as well as an example of creative uses of alternate energy for the public.

Problem statement

The object of this project is to create a parabolic mirror cooker that is a successful example of the ways to capture and use the suns energy in a sustainable manner. We plan to do this in two steps by first testing the most efficient and effective way of building the cooker, then implementing the most environmentally friendly construction techniques to achieve the creation of it.
