*'''December 2013:''' [[Engineers Without Borders - Iran]] (EWB-Iran) participated in "Research Week" (Dec. 14 - 20, 2013) at Fasa University, highlighting the importance of solar cookers. In this seminar they informed students and professors about the different types of solar cookers and their efficiency. The team included [[Soheil Salimi]] (Founder and Lecturer), Razieh Amini nezhad (Food Science and Technology student), Niloufar Nekueian (Mathematics student), and Fatemeh Rahimi (Mechanical engineering student). They tested two types of solar cookers. The [[Suntastic Panel Cooker]], which raised the internal temperature of an empty 4-liter black pot with a clear glass lid to 150° C (302° F) in about 30 minutes, and 3 liters of water heated from 26° C (79°F) to pasteurization point, 70°C (158°F), in about 50 minutes.[[File:The_suntastic_cooker_.jpg|thumb|300px|The [[Suntastic Panel Cooker]]]] They also teseted the [[Dual-Setting Panel Cooker]] (DSPL), which has two different settings to better concentrate sunlight according to the sun altitude.
