German pioneers solar cooking reflectors in Mexico

The video tutorial introduces Wolfgang Schaeffler's innovative reflectors, capable of generating temperatures up to 1020 degrees Celsius. The system uses a primary and secondary reflector to concentrate sunlight, which is then absorbed and transformed into heat. A tracking device ensures the reflectors follow the sun's movement, while telescopic clamps allow for seasonal adjustments. The panel is designed from a section of a paraboloid and is adjusted seasonally, with specific angles for equinox, summer, and winter in the northern hemisphere.

Who is credited with inventing the solar reflector discussed in the video?

• Albert Einstein

• Wolfgang Schaeffler

• Nikola Tesla

• Thomas Edison

What is the primary function of the secondary reflector in the solar device?

• To cool down the system

• To direct light to the bottom of the pot

• To store solar energy

• To generate electricity

How does the tracking device assist the solar reflector?

• By cooling the reflector

• By generating additional heat

• By monitoring the sun's movement from east to west

• By storing excess energy

What is the angle of the reflector to the ground during the equinox in the northern hemisphere?

• 32 degrees

• 60 degrees

• 43 degrees

• 55 degrees

During which season is the reflector inclined to 55 degrees?

• Autumn

• Summer

• Spring

• Winter
