Energy demand gets increasing owing to increase in population and industrialization. To meet out this hiked energy demand, the recent technologies has been developed using renewable energy sources, such as solar energy. A solar cooker is one of the main applications of renewable solar energy, which can be used to boil water and to cook food at high temperature in the specified time limit. This work aimed to design, fabricate and analyze the performance of parabolic solar cooker. Also it is focused to compare the performance with charcoal, firewood, kerosene and electricity with reference to cooking time period and energy cost. The parabolic solar cooker is being constructed with old satellite dish, steel frame, solar panel and aluminum foil. The specifications such as aperture diameter, depth of the parabola, focal length, surface area have been designed and calculated based on our requirements and standards. This solar cooker can trail the sun light from north to south and east to west. The outcome of the solar cooker is being evaluated by calculating the efficiency, average upcoming solar radiation and power. The efficiency of this parabolic solar cooker is evaluated as 11.25% and the power output of this cooker is being calculated ads 0.33 kW/hr. It is also observed that the newly designed and fabricated parabolic solar cooker has showed relatively better performance with other energy sources in terms of cooking energy cost. Accordingly, this type of parabolic solar cookers can be enormously utilized in the developing countries.
