dc.description.abstractThis thesis presents the development and performance testing of Porous Radiant Burners (PRBs) using different fuels, including LPG, natural gas, and biogas, for cooking and industrial applications. These PRBs show promise in enhancing thermal efficiency and reducing emissions compared to conventional burners. In addition, an analytical model was developed to determine the factors influencing the primary air entrainment in a PRB. And experimental investigations were performed to check the validity of the developed analytical expression. Further, performances of the developed PRBs were assessed in terms of thermal efficiency and emissions. Through experimental investigations, it was found that the developed LPG-PRB and NG-PRB, exhibit improved thermal efficiency and fuel savings. Furthermore, a BG-PRB cookstove for domestic use was developed and demonstrated substantial gains in thermal efficiency and reduced emissions compared to conventional biogas burners. Environmental and economic assessments of the developed PRBs were conducted, highlighting the environmental benefits and cost savings associated with the use of these innovative PRBs. This research work contributes to the sustainable Energy Science and Engineering transition and offers practical solutions for cleaner and more efficient Energy Science and Engineering utilization in cooking and Industrial applications.
