The data obtained were used to measure heat energy storage and efficiency of solar cooker in each testing. In comparison, double-layered solar cooker can store better heat energy and efficiency than single-layered since it operates as collector that collects more heat inside the solar cooker. Hotter climate also gives higher efficiency to solar cookers. Malaysia's sunlight is satisfactory for Quintuplet Exposure Box- Type Solar Cooker. Since Malaysia located in equatorial area, solar thermal applications should be applicable, so other types of solar cooker can be researched. 2010 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/2544/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/2544/1/2544.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi MARA Faculty of Mechanical Engineering
