PROJECT BY : RITA SAMSSEME, GRADE 8. COOKING USING SUNLIGHT

OVERVIEW: Introduction Questions - How can I cook cookies using just sunlight? -How do you measure it, and why does it cook it? Materials Procedure -All steps listed. Results - Pictures -What happened? Conclusion

INTRODUCTION: Cooking using sunlights term is called Solar Cooking. A solar cooker is is a device which uses the energy of direct sun rays to heat or cook. The vast majority of solar cookers presently in use are relatively cheap, low-tech devices. Because they use no fuel and cost nothing to operate.

QUESTIONS: How can I cook cookies using just sunlight? - If test how long it takes for cookies to bake in a solar oven covered with nothing, glass, and foil, than I think that glass will bake the cookies the fastest because it will let the most sunlight in and then trap the heat from the sun inside of the solar oven.

QUESTIONS: How do you measure sunlight, and why does it cook it? -Measurement Units: The measurement of the power of sunlight emitted from the sun is called Radiant Flux and is measured in watts. The measurement of the perceived power of sunlight is called Luminous Flux and is measured in lumens. Lumans are directly related to candelas (or candlepower), which is the luminous intensity emitted in any one direction. -It is not the sun’s heat that cooks the food, nor is it the outside ambient temperature, though this can somewhat affect the rate or time required to cook, but rather it is the suns rays that are converted to heat energy that cook the food; and this heat energy is then retained by the pot and the food by the means of a covering or lid. This is what makes the UV rays cook it, not by the sun, but by the temperature.

MATERIALS: Two cardboard boxes: one must fit completely inside the other with about an inch or two to spare, and the outer one must have flaps (or you can create and attach some) Roll of aluminum foil Masking tape Four 12-inch pieces of string Eight beads or pieces of macaroni Pencil Piece of black construction paper Scissors Scrunched-up shredded paper Piece of glass, large enough to completely cover the smaller box but small enough to fit inside the larger one Cooking thermometer Small cookie sheet or pie tin (must fit inside smaller box; make your own with some of the foil if necessary) Prepared cookie dough (commercial or homemade) that bakes at 350° or under warm, sunny day

PROCEDURE: STEPS. Cover the insides of the flaps of the larger box with aluminum foil, with the shiny side facing out; tape the foil in place. Use the pencil to poke small holes in the edges of the flaps. Tie a bead to one end of one of the pieces of string, string it through one of the holes in one of the flaps so that the bead ends up on the outside of the flap, string it through the hole in the next flap over from the inner side to the outer, and tie another bead to this end of the string. Repeat so that all four flaps are connected together with the strings. Line the entire inside of the smaller box with foil, shiny side out, taping it in place. Cut the piece of construction paper so that it fits neatly inside the smaller box; tape it inside the bottom of the box. Put enough shredded paper inside the larger box so that when you rest the smaller box on it, the opening is just barely below the opening of the big box. Center the little box and pack the space between the walls of the big box and the walls of the little box with more shredded paper. Put the cooking thermometer and some of the cookies on the baking sheet (you may need to grease it first: check the instructions/recipe) and set it inside the inner box; cover the inner box with the pane of glass. Your solar oven is ready to go!

PROCEDURE: STEPS CONTINUATION. Take the oven outside and set it in a bright, sunny spot where it won’t be disturbed. Turn it so that the sun shines directly into it; if the sun isn’t pretty close to directly overhead, you might want to put something under one side of the box to tip it to face the sun. Use the strings to adjust the flaps so that as much sunlight as possible is reflected into the inside of the oven. Now you wait. I hope you brought a good book! Depending on the time of day and how warm it is outside, you may need to turn the oven or even move it to a new spot so that it gets as much sunlight in it as possible. Keep an eye on the cooking thermometer. You’ll notice that it gets much hotter inside the oven than it is outside. That’s partly because the aluminum foil is focusing the solar radiation, and partly because the glass is acting like a layer of greenhouse gases: like them, it’s clear, but some of the shorter wavelengths will bounce off of it and tend to stay inside the oven, making things hotter and hotter inside. It may get as hot as 350° Fahrenheit in there! When the cookies look like they’re about done (they’ll probably be browning around the edges and won’t be shiny anymore), or when the thermometer reads a temperature higher than they’re supposed to cook at, whichever comes first, take the glass off and let the inside of the oven cool for a few minutes. When the cookie sheet isn’t too hot to touch anymore, lift it out and try a cookie!
