Solar Heating Systems: What are they?

Solar heat is environmentally friendly, and it is also very cost effective;  it does not produce greenhouse gases.  If you have any kind of allergy problems or problems with chemicals then it is the best choice.   

Now, what is the solar heating? When the sun’s rays or radiation hit the solar panels, a heat transfer fluid flowing through them carry the collected heat energy to a hot water tank or any radiators that are used in house.

Solar Cooker 

 With the increasing concerns of global warming, and domestic fuel becoming expensive solar cookers have grown immensely in popularity. A solar cooker is a big box  painted black, inside which utensils are kept, they too are painted black. Raw food items are kept in the utensils and then the cooker is kept in open. The mirror present on solar cooker is adjusted such that it reflects maximum sunlight in the box. There have been several modifications over this simple model, such as use of parabolic reflectors instead of a plane mirror.  

A parabolic reflector is capable of concentrating energy over a specific area, and thereby can generate temperatures as high as 600 degree Celsius. Another modification made is use of auto adjustments in the cooker. Nowadays the reflector panel of the cooker can automatically focus itself where is faces maximum light.
