theoretical) to serve as the best source material at one place.
Attempts are made to discuss topics in depth to assist both the
students (undergraduate, pos- graduate, Research Scholars) and the
professionals (consulting, design, contracting firms). The third
volume discusses the heating, agricultural and photovo1taic
applications of Solar Energy. Chapter 1 deals with solar cookers,
one of the important application area for developing countries.

studies carri d out on direct type and on box type solar cookers
are also presented. A test procedure for rating a box type solar
cooker is also introduced. The limitations and advantages of
various cookers are discussed briefly in the chapter. Desalinated
water for drinking purposes, for industrial and agricultural
applications is required. The topic of Solar Distillation is
discussed in detail in chapter two. Solar Distillation has a long
