P6/7 Solar Oven Success

6th Jun 2016

Unbelievably, the solar oven was able to raise the temperature of the water inside it by 22 degrees centigrade! The temperature of the water outside the oven rose as well, but by only 8 degrees over the same time. Unfortunately we could not have eggs for lunch as the temperature inside only got to 59 degrees centigrade- not hot enough!

Record the temperature every 15 minutes
