Design And Fabrication Of An Electric-Gas And Kerosene Oven (Triplex Powered Oven)
ABSTRACT
Due to
irregularpower supplycommon in developing countries, as well as growing high
cost of hydrocarbon, the need arises for the development of a triplex powered
oven that uses electricity, gas and kerosene for heating oven chambers. The
triplex-powered oven is a combination ofthree components and three layers
ofchamberspoweredby electricity, gas and kerosene respectivelywhich makes
itpossible the use ofalternative heatsources. The research is an improvement on
the previous work which had gas, electric and temperature sensor regulator
component. The volumetricflow rate, Q obtained showed that the maximum quantity
ofkerosene that will be discharged and burnt every second, ifthe pressure in
the cylinder is maintained at 1 MPa, is 4.71xl0’6m3. The outer oven temperature
was 63°C. Mercury in glass thermometer was used to determine the temperatures ofthe
oven (thermometer ofrange 0- 110°C and of range 50-150°C). Perforations allow
for heat dissipation within the lower chamber. The performance test gave oven
efficiency of95.2 per cent. The oven can be adapted for both domestic and
industrialpurposes andhave beenfoundvery useful in bakery industries.
