Developed is a solar cooker with triangle reflective sides. Above and below are two movable solar reflecting panels, that can be adjusted to focus light onto an invented frying pan using a glass lid, an insulating pad, and a surrounding plastic bag to trap solar light for cooking. The triangle reflective sides are used also to adjust and support the two movable solar reflecting panels via movable pegs. In the corners adjacent to the triangle sides, back reflective plate and reflective floor plate is an invented reflective equilateral triangle, to capture and reflect light towards the solar frying pan assembly. At night the entire solar cooker can be folded down to form a storage space. The entire solar cooker is foldable for shipping.

A revolution-of-a-parabolic-curve is sliced by two planes to form a reflecting-parabolic-splice-solar-smelter so as to focus the sun's noon light to a crucible for smelting rocks, glass and metals and for processing of chemicals, using zero degrees of freedom. (50 words)

A tilt-able-central-planar-reflector, a tilt-able-auxiliary-left-planar-reflector, and a tilt-able-auxiliary-right-planar-reflector are hingely attached to a solar-absorbing-thermal-mass. The sun's light is made horizontal to reflect to the interior wall of a reflecting-curved-overhang, capturing the sun's sunrise light and sun's sunset light, and to reflect to the interior wall of a reflecting-parabolic-half-shell capturing the sun's noon light, so as to redirect the sun's light to a solar-absorbing-thermal-mass. The net result provides heat 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for utilization.

摘要:
Described is a method of insitu conversion of coal formations to oil, natural gas, and alcohol fuels, and a method of tertiary oil recovery using lightning as an energy source. Lightning rods which are insulated from other geologic strata conduct lightning to an embedded metal block, the embedded block located in the coal or oil bearing geologic strata. The metal block attracts lightning via the lightning rod, but also serves as capacitance. The conductance of electricity from one lightning rod (+) to another lightning rod (-) through the hydrocarbon bearing strata converts the coal and water to oil, natural gas, and alcohols or secondarily extracts oil as tertiary recovery. The oil, natural gas and alcohols are extracted via traditional pumping methods.

A method of making hot air in the range of 200 degrees (F) from the sunlight striking the paved surface of a parking lot is described. The transparent surface is above an opaque surface forming a homogeneous solid. Beneath the pavement are parallel pipes for the movement of air. The air is compressed into the pipe and sucked out of the pipes via photovoltaic powered fans. Due to the heat transfer through the walls of the pipes, ambient air is made hot. The hot air can then be used economically as precombustion air to a typical fossil fuel burner as oil, coal or gas. While the hot air would not be able to provide enough heat to power an entire power plant or oil refinery, the net result is more efficient fuel burning, with less air pollution produced, perhaps reducing fuel consumption by 5 to 10 percent. While the parking lot pavement may be made of recycled materials as glass or plastic, the pavement is still capable of supporting the weight of an automobile while also producing hot air.

Invented is a solar smelter that also manufactures hot air or hot fluids. A curved parabolic-half-shell focuses the sun's rays unto a crucible, which is buried into the ground. Using a heliostat, the sunlight is reflected horizontally unto an interior reflective wall of the curved parabolic-half-shell. Surrounding the crucible is a thermal-mass with embedded pipes, that manufacture hot and compressed air, or heated gas or fluid. On top of the thermal-mass is a clear transparent-and-insulating-glazing that captures any stray solar rays, adding heat to the thermal-mass. At the foci of the parabolic-half-shell is a crucible for melting rocks, sand, glass or metals, or processing chemicals.

Melting metals using solar energy is not new, but is new is making the technology ergonomic, and easy to use. Invented is a half-shell-parabolic-dish reflector, which has in front an adjustable flat planar reflector. When the sun is overhead, the sunlight reflects off the flat planar reflector to a half-shell-parabolic-dish, which redirects the light to a crucible for smelting metals, which is also the focus of the sunlight. The entire assembly rotates on top of a turntable, which can be steel wheel, floating on compressed air, bicycle wheels, or other suitable methods. The entire assembly rotates about a crucible located at the focal of the sun's rays. A smaller version of the smelter can be used for solar cooking.
