The cooking unit is sized to fit standard kitchen dimensions and operates on saturated steam, which can be supplied directly from the solar collectors or from a buffer tank. The maximum operating temperature depends on the available steam. If a lower temperature is required, the steam inlet is automatically regulated using an adjustable throttle (e.g., pulsed injection) to achieve the desired level. This system is scalable for use in commercial kitchens, making it especially well suited for rapid deployment in crisis-affected regions.
