This is impractical.
- Density of vegetable oil: d= 0.91 g/cm3
- Specific heat of vegetable oil: s = 1.67 kJ/kg.K
- Temperature required to pop popcorns: T = 150 C
- Power of two heating lights: P = 2.8 * 0.3 * 2 = 1.68 W
-
Time required to pop popcorns at a room temperature of 50 C with 5 g of oil:
d * 5 * s * (T - 50) / P = 4970 secs = 82 minutes.
