    • hi gmoke,

      Solar cookers
      this is good to understand solar math. In reality you need for the Satellite dish cooker a diameter of 1.4meters like the famous SK14 cooker. This one produces 500W solar cooking power enough to boil 1liter water in 10 minutes.

      Solar thermal Electricity plant
      using same concentrator principle to steam water turning a generator turbine. Nice video
