  • Abstract
    In the present work we report the design and fabrication of an improved electric cum solar oven (ECSO) in which both solar energy and electricity has been utilized as energy source. The design consists of a tilted upper glass cover rectangular shape and the angle of slope 30 degree. The electrical heating was used in conjunction with the solar energy to make the oven useful during the periods of lesser sunshine. The temperature of the oven has been controlled using a thermostat. The oven has been found useful for cooking conventional food items in a very reasonable time under the local environmental conditions of Faisalabad city.
