when we cut out the flap for the reflecter of the solar oven does it have to be in a certain angle? like 45degrees and does it matterwhere the sun is? i needd this for school project thanksthanks
I would take a bowl and turn it over and cover it with aluminum foil, make it as smooth as possibleRemove the foil from the bowl and place it in the boxbecause the light/heat will reflect at any point to the center of the bowlIt doesn't matter what angle the sun is at just as long as you get direct sunlightYou might also want to use some insulation for your projectthe point of most heat is going to be in the middle of the bowlYou can use saran wrap to cover your box and to keep the heat inWe made one for freshman engineering course and ours got up to 300 degrees in direct sunlight.
