Experimental study for improving energy efficiency of charcoal stove [1]

Additional image:: 

Traditional stoves generate large quantities of smoke and suspended particulate matter while only 10-40% of released energy tranfers to pot. This research paper describes design steps with experiments carried out for charcoal stove named SEES to interlink energy efficiency and various design parameters.

This paper describes design steps with experiments carried out for charcoal stove (SEES) to interlink efficiency and various design parameters. Important parameters affecting energy efficiency are amount of air supplied (flue gas temp.), retention time of flue gas in stove, insulation and skirt gas. Skirt gap is most important parameter for higher efficiency of SEES prototype.
