Title: Concentrated Sunlight on Pipe

Steven Willis

School of EPS

The project is to construct a Solar BBQ, where a copper pipe in the centre receives sunlight reflected onto it using a reflective parabolic surface, this concentration heats up the copper pipe, meaning it can cook a sausage! These pictures are of the copper pipe heating up so much that the glue used to hold the insulation has started to melt and smoke. 3972 is Colin Weighill writing down some results from the test.
