Abstract

Biomass cookstove is a cuisine and user specific device. Every cuisine represents a unique cooking situation and the requirements such as; the range of cooking power required and the shape and size of utensils are almost rigid at the user-end. Hence, a single cookstove model cannot replace all the traditional stoves in the field, and user must be free to choose a stove size depending upon his/her own requirements. Moreover, the paradigm of cookstove design is shifting from energy-efficient stoves to the emissions efficient stoves. Hence, we have to ensure that, a stove design must fulfill user's requirements as well as new energy and environmental norms. The paper presents a user-centric design and sizing procedure, based upon findings from the parametric analysis of experimental data and simulations of validated heat and mass transfer model; subjected to different constraints.
