WARNING: Using a giant Fresnel lens poses risks of dangerous UV exposure to eyes. UV or welding goggles should be warn to minimize the risk. Intense concentrated solar energy may generate temperatures upwards of 3,000ºF causing fires and/or burns. This video is for demonstration purposes only, and is not intended to be duplicated. Use of video content is at your own risk.
Project History & More Info:
What is this device? It’s called a “Fresnel Lens”.
My “Solar Scorcher” project was originally inspired by Dan Rojas of GreenPowerScience: http://youtu.be/JkgFk15uBxw (Fresnel Lens Giant “Big Daddy”)
Kipkay also made one a few years ago he called the “Solar Death Ray”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAT6IRBK_uE
In this experiment, 2 scrambled eggs were cooked with solar power within 20-40 seconds. I used a black metal cooking pan that was pre-heated and buttered, so when the eggs were added, there was plenty of heat to cook them.
If trying to cook eggs sunny side up, it’s a bit more difficult because the egg whites reflect a lot of the heat, and don’t cook as fast. But pre-heating the pan is a great option before adding the eggs.
With scrambled eggs, the yoke is mixed throughout, turning the entire mix a deep yellow. This absorbs heat from the sun a little more readily, and helps it cook faster.
I was amazed at the power that could be harnessed from the sun, so I tried building one of these “Solar Death Rays” for myself.
I call this device the “Solar Scorcher”. Check out some of the links below to learn more about it, and how you can make your own!
