of this work is to design, develop and experimentally test the performance of an improved box-type solar cooker with thermal energy storage. The improvement features are the ability to concentrate solar rays and store thermal energy.

Portable heat storage material opted instead of integrating inside a box-type solar cooker. The thermal performance of the current box-type solar cooker is limited, and no provision for evening cooking, which could increase its dependability and attract more consumers.

Thermal storage materials store energy by increasing their internal energy by sensible heating, phase shift, thermochemical reactions, or a combination of these processes . Figure 3 represents the simple categorization of heat storage materials used as heat storage. Categorization of Heat storage materials for solar cooker
Saxena and Karakilcik (2017) have developed box-type solar cooker with low cost thermal energy storage for the thermal performance evaluation. A mixture of sand and granular carbon with an optimum ratio was used as sensible thermal energy storage in solar box cooker (SBC).
