A Review on Performance of Biogas Stove From Different Design of Burner

Abstract

The requirement of energy is escalating at an alarming rate, which has led to the depletion of fossil fuel reserves and takes millions of years to be formed by natural processes. These are renewable but due to lack of development in technologies, the produced biogas cannot be effectively used and hence is of very less importance. Advanced biogas generation method has increased to the increase of a quantity of biogas rural devices for cooking, lighting, heating and power production. To meet the power need for food preparing purpose at community level in addition to domestic level the most capable appliance is the biogas stove among them. Several studies are happening for efficient generation of biogas in order to it could be used as alternate energy, because conventional fossil fuels are costlier than biogas. In this study designed three types of burner namely burner A with 115 holes of 1.5 mm size, burner B with 41 holes of 3 mm size and burner C with 44 holes of 2 mm size. By using this burner in place of regular burner for boiling water reach maximum flame temperature 1261.023 °C for A, 1226.01 °C for B and 1317.929 °C for C and the temperature rise in burner A, B and C are 0.31°C, 0.403 °C and 0.273 °C respectively.
