Abstract

A series of experiments were conducted on the 3-stone single mouth type traditional chula to determine the heat utilization efficiency (HUE) varying the hearth diameter, hearth height and stone height. The effect of the variation of the dimension on the HUE was tested statistically. The best dimension combination of hearth height and stone height for each hearth diameter size of chula was determined.
