Innovative Solar Oven Making Project

This solar oven is a very simple and innovative project for school-level project. This solar oven is especially useful in summer. We can make this simple solar oven even in waste-in-use mode.

Let's see what the necessary materials for this project are:

v This requires a cardboard box in the first open size.

v Aluminum foil.

v Glue for sticking.

v Essentially a transparent plastic seat i.e. a plastic seat that looks like glass.

v Black colour sun work construction paper.

v A thermometer to measure temperature.

Step-1

First, three sides should be cut with a cutter to open and close the top of the carton. Only one side should be left uncut so that it is not damaged by frequent opening and closing of the side and it is fixed by applying a cell adhesive.

For this, you can first take an exact measure on the cardboard box and draw a line on three sides. You can put a dotted line on the uncut side and then measure and cut and it will come out right.

Step-2

A new dress cardboard box is perfect for this because we can open and close the box completely and choose a box that is suitable for the top to be cut open on three sides to let the sunlight in.

Open the box completely cover it with aluminum foil and then stick black sunwork construction paper on it. Then cover the cover completely and we have to cut three sides only and stick the aluminum foil on the inside of the cover.

Step-3

Now a transparent plastic sheet should be placed over the open area only then sunlight can enter it.

A thermometer can be found when placed to measure heat.

For understanding

This solar oven can bring heat up to almost 75 degrees Celsius if it is placed in hot weather. This heat is sufficient to cook food items that can be cooked moderately. You can cook basic meals with simple over-the-counter meals like these during summers when you can't prepare food.

The reason why this solar oven gets hot is because of the non-conductive cardboard and the black construction paper which is highly absorbent.

This oven includes thermal insulation without conduction of heat. By using black-coloured construction paper, black colour attracts more heat and light due to which its temperature increases.

This project is great for the school level, simple and innovative.
