Solar energy is considered to be the most renewable, clean and abundant source of energy. The application of solar energy has been implemented in various fields, cooking being one of them. The heat pump lab at IIT Bombay has developed a solar steam generator that is simple and affordable. Existing studies in the field show that using steam for cooking can save up to 40%-60% of fuel as compared to traditional cooking. Presently there are many manufacturers who produce cooking vessels in the market that use steam as a source for cooking food, which has its own pros and cons. These kinds of vessels are most effectively used in the area of community cooking (hospitals, hostels, temples, etc.). This project is an attempt to make the whole cooking activity much easier for the user, i.e., making it a user-centric design. Finding the flaws in the existing cooking vessels and delivering a new product that gives a new cooking experience for the user are the further objectives. The project has gradually attained its shape after studying a broad spectrum of steam-generated cooking to understand the possibility and scope of this project and finally narrowing it down to a steam-based rice cooker. This report outlines the detailed design process followed during the project.
