Performance Evaluation of Biomass Cooking Devices in Household Environment with Various Solid Biomass Fuel

Abstract

This paper is the modest attempt towards experimental study in lab backed with field work for energy efficient cooking devices based on various solid biomass fuel. The study is designed in such a way so as to compare these energy efficient cook stoves as opposed to traditional cook stoves in terms of their thermal efficiency, time of cooking, fuel consumption; finally being helpful in assessing the sustainability of such new technology interventions particularly in rural areas.
