EFFECT OF AUTOMATED BURNER KNOB FOR DIFFERENT MEDIUM ON GASCONSUMPTION BY LOCAL STOVE FOR HOUSEHOLD AND INDUSTRIALSAFETY

This article presents a framework of house hold and industrial automation, safety and fuel conservation through a very basic approach. The ever increasing demand and usage of LPG in India poses a major concern regarding the availability of safe and efficient stoves at households as well as the industries. The ideas presented show comparison between the gas consumption with and without the use of an automated system implemented on the traditional stove. The comparison has been defined by means of graphs with traceability capabilities depending upon the experiments carried out. The experimental setup used, is made from readily available components hence providing a feasible solution to the stated problems.
