Parabolic Satellite Dish Conversion - Solar Cooker

[@ovi_4]

I've tried the same thing 6 years ago and found that you really do not need the paint striper and create all that hard work and used all dhoose chemicals and tool. All you really need is a reel of aluminium tape to cover the dish with. The results are identical and achievable in max 10 minutes. No polishing needed. No holes need covering as the tape will cover them anyway. After all not the look of the dish is important but the functionality.

[@AlanHowellphotovideo]

It just depends on the dish. Some have more orange peel than others. Some need it, some don't. I wanted to show how to deal with the ones that do have orange peel. I used the bolt holes to mount to the dish stand, then covered the bolt heads with reflective tape.

[@kevinrehberg8758]

Just a couple of suggestions, and I totally agree that protective eye wear be used..First suggestion is to have the parabolic angled so that the refraction and collection points up to the underside of the cooking vessel.. like a burner contact point with any pot of pan.. Most of your better quality cookwear have that thick plate to act as a buffer..The second which goes towards eye safety.. You can protect your eye sight by simply slipping a cardboard or other firm surfaced object over the lens before you do any cooking activity like stirring, serving, or adding ingredients..I do agree with the more extreme light filtering eye wear... but stumbling around blinded or nearly blind has its hazards as well. This was one of the reasons I suggest pointing the refraction and collection points up and using a light blocking material covering the lens

[@fisheye42]

Kevin Rehberg - I was thinking the same thing. These “Offset” parabolic dishes can be turned upside down, placed UNDER an elevated pan/pot, so they bounce light upward. Diagram here (not my page): watkin-online.com/openpage.html

[@AlanHowellphotovideo]

Yes, this is true. Its difficult to find those large dishes and they are much more powerful and can have a much larger focal point, which is very important. So buying those styles of cookers is going to produce much more reliable results. I'm all for companies that make a good solar product, especially marketed towards third world or poverty-stricken areas, or places that do not have adequate or legal access to firewood or other resources. But, as you are probably aware, it gets old hearing from the climate change deniers or oil and power company shills that attack alternative cooking or power sources simply to gain more profit. So, as well...keep up the good work! As a side note, I'm hoping to do a video soon on a box style oven made from old house windows. I just need to settle on the design.

Even then, covering the space with transparent material would help build up heat due to greenhouse effect. It might not cook nevertheless but hot water will help bring energy cost down.

[@justincase5272]

Also, contrary to popular misconception, it doesn't need to be perfectly smooth. Mirror-like, yes. But the tape doesn't need to overlap. In fact, I've use aluminum foil just mashed into a dish sprayed with 3M adhesive. It's smooth enough for cooking and took all of 3 minutes.

[@AlanHowellphotovideo]

Foil works fine for reflectivity but it often needs replacement as its not as durable. Cutting into strips helps reduce wrinkles, which does indeed raise the reflectivity ratio. This is why a mirror is so much more reflective than tape, because of the perfect smoothness/polish.

A sheet of mylar costs 99 cents and can be applied directly to the dish using spray glue in about 5 minutes. How long did your method take?

[@AlanHowellphotovideo]

Mylar sheeting and foil do not last very long so you would have to keep replacing it over and over, and that adds up over time. This solution of polishing is permanent. The vinyl tape lasts much, much longer as well...far longer than mylar or foil. I've made all three before and the vinyl tape and polished dishes are the only ones that are still going strong after 4 years with zero maintenance.

[@sonofeloah]

Good job! I am doing mine with chrome paint. Will give me a chrome finish that will rival the polished metal and not get overheated as the vinyl will.

[@AlanHowellphotovideo]

Good luck! Show us how it went.

[@petset77]

The dish itself shouldn't ever overheat. It's the parabolic focus point concentrating the sun's energy from whatever size reflector that gets hot (just like with a fresnel). A larger parabola only makes more heat at focal point because it's size collects more of the sun. How did your painted dish do? I'm tinkering with a few designs, and foil tape, sanded/polished bare metal, chrome paint are all I'm considering for a recycled television dish cooker.

Its easier to glue Mylar to the dish and its much brighter than polished metal.

[@AlanHowellphotovideo]

Mylar is not as durable and can decay fairly quickly so repeated mylar applications are necessary, therefore extra labor time and material cost is the issue. Lots of ways to accomplish the end result, but people have to decide which fits their application best. Since mylar doesn't last as long as the sanding and polishing, in my experience, it is actually much, much more expensive and time-consuming over the long term.

i wonder why the governmentss do not have programs set out using this tech to heat houses . i am on disability and heat the house using electricity and know for a fact that using the suns power would save tax money that could be used in better ways . same goes for people that heat the house using natural gas . my thoughts on this is that the governmentss own all the power stations and would not get to keep the majority of money for themselves so that they can have the easy life . same goes for the banks , its my belief that the governmentss are the main share holders , people that save money in the banks are getting jipped , they borrow your money with high interest out to others and keep the majority of it for themselves . if you ask to borrow money from them you have to pay high interest and yet most people are willing to just give the banks money with basically no return investment .

temperatures drop at night when this becomes useless :D

[@carmichaelmoritz8662]

@@erwinconxepts i meant to say partial heating , can you imagine heating stones using such a powerful device . stones can hold heat for a lengthy time thus helping reduce the use of other costly methods .

There are some places where government is helping people to use solar energy. In México before the current government entered last december 1st there was a huge impulse towards solar water heaters, even going as far as government giving away solar water heaters to hundreds of thousands of families but the new government is against green technologies so that program is dead right now. In Baja the state government worked with US companies to install eolic generators, they can feed a small town with no problem whatsoever (200,000-300,000 people) but the new president when he saw the generators ranted about that and called them "eotic ventilators" (he is quite an imbecile), and he is pushing for more production of oil and to generate more power by burning oil and its derivates... he is basically doing the same things a president did in 1970, step by step, old people living in the past can be dangerous when they are in the government :-/

You would consider solid to liquid insulated material to hold heat for the night.

Алюмини отражает 97% инфракрасных лучей , а железо НЕТ видимый свет да, но не тепловые лучи (ифрокрасные ), так что зря ты железо шлифовал.

Correct. Tried the same with simple aluminium foil coated tape. Had way more efficiency without any form of polishing - just stick it carefully. (What he did in the end).

Enjoyed the photon death ray video. Got a scare when you started adding veggies to pot-- your two dogs-- I thought they were dead rabbits waiting for the stew pot.
