Development of novel porous radiant burners for LPG cooking applications

► Developed a novel porous radiant burner (PRB) for domestic LPG cooking stoves. ► Obtained 75% thermal efficiency which is 10% higher than the LPG domestic cooking stoves. ► The CO and NOX emissions of PRB were in the range of 10-160 mg/m3 and 0-0.9 mg/m3, respectively. ► PRB showed steady operation with out any flash back.
