| Description |
The possible ill effects of using high speed diesel oil (HSDO) in domestic kerosene
stoves have been investigated. With wick stove, the use of HSDO results in wastage
of fuel, fall in the rate of output of heat, higher consumption of wicks and blackening
of vessels. There is negligible adverse effect of using kerosene containing up to 30%
HSDO on the performance of a pressure stove (oil pressure 1-2 kg/cm 2) as regards soot
formation. Though the thermal efficiency of HSDO is comparable to that of kerosene,
stoves in which HSDO or HSDO-keroseneblends are burnt need frequent cleaning
and their performance suffers with repeated use.
