Solar power is an alternative energy source that can be used for cooking. It is a simple, secure, and useful way to cook food without using conventional fuels that pollute the air. Solar cookers offer various benefits to the user’s health, productivity, and income as well as to the environment. Solar energy is abundant in a tropical country like Indonesia, making it a dependable and sustainable of energy resource. The study’s goal is to analyze the potency of steam produced by a solar cooker that uses a Fresnel lens concentrator. The thermal performance of the Fresnel lens concentrator with a conical receiver on the solar cooker prototype is discussed in this research. In the construction of solar cookers, PMMA (Polymethyl-Methacrylate) Fresnel lenses, manual trackers, and conical receiver types are used. The research conducts an experimental analysis of the thermal performance of the prototype solar cooker using a Fresnel lens concentrator with a conical receiver. This empirical approach provides valuable data on the efficiency and effectiveness of the solar cooker design. The experiment result shows the cumulative average solar irradiation, the average collection of solar energy per time of Fresnel lens concentrator, and the heat utilized of steam from conical receiver are 709.09 W/m², 456.14 Watt, and 383.88 Watt, respectively. The results of this study suggest that Fresnel lens concentrators are a promising development for indoor solar cookers and therefore provide a pathway for increased utilization of solar cooking technology.
