Nowadays, mostly people uses liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as a fuel for cooking purpose. In LPG cooking large amount of energy wasted during the cooking process. Therefore, it is important to use the heat energy effectively. This study investigates the heat transfer characteristics and thermal efficiency of cooking pots with water boiling test. The project work involves the five different height to diameter ratio of cylindrical shape of cooking pots are heated with changing the heating time as 5 minutes, 7.5 minutes and 10 minutes. It is found that from the results the pot 2 has highest efficiency of 53.20% for 7.5 minutes of heating time and pot 5 has lowest efficiency of 29.62% for 5 minutes of heating time among the pots. The water boiling test results shows that the pot2 and pot3 required less time to reaches the water boiling temperature among the cooking pots. So pot2 and pot3 are most effective cooking pots. The goal of this study is to determine the thermal efficiency of cooking pots and select the optimum shape of cooking pot. This will help to reduce the heat losses and large amount of energy is to be saved.
