Abstract
The paper works on investigation of the performance analysis of conventional LPG cooking stove. The performance parameters are obtained by experimental method. To investigate the areas for improving performance based on the results by proper efficient burner design, produce less pollutant formation and saving losses, etc. The performance of the cooking stove was studied using experimental method. The experimental method was carried out using water boiling test and emission test according to IS 4246:2002. The thermal efficiency was found nearer 66.27% and the rate of heat generated by burner is 1.7849 KW. In the emission test, the % of volume of CO2 was found to be 0.9 and the ppm of CO was found to be 50.



Keywords and phrases

conventional burner, thermal efficiency, emission.
