    Default mirrors for solar heaters.

    I guess every one knows about the concave and convex mirrors.

    They have a tendency to focus the light to one point.

    This phenomenon can be used to focus the sunlight on a vessel contains the water. The water will start heating in quick time.

    Default Can you please elaborate?

    Pravin, Your idea sounds good, but you need to provide a bit more details in a way that people can understand.

    Thanks!

    Interesting idea. Won't you need a large mirror surface to reflect the sun's heat enough to boil water for this? A small one just won't do it methinks. Or perhaps if you could concentrate the light so much so that you won't need larger mirrors.
