In my previous articles I have many ways to save fuel the debate for your vehicle. I mentioned the steps to adopt a good driving behavior, you get your car in excellent condition, plan your trips, carpooling, avoiding traffic jams, driving smaller vehicles, choosing more efficient cars and adding to savings energy devices and many others.
If some of the items listed above you should be able to get a very good performance from the fuel fills the tank and savecost of vehicle fuel.
Today we have the opportunity to discuss to reduce fuel consumption, but this time in our kitchens. Save the gas for cooking requires a different approach from the fuel. This is because gas stove uses uses an external combustion of fuel compared to engines burning fuel.
Gas fuel such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) or natural gas (CNG) is often used to cook at home, because it is clean and easily accessible. If we are able to controlU.S., we could save a substantial amount of money.
With the global oil and gas prices at a level so high, they are difficult for many of us try to push the maximum work from the fuel we use. One of the best strategies is to use for the waste, which can lead to loss of energy, is avoided.
Here are some ways to save gas in the kitchen:
1 Light up your stove when you are ready to cook and ingredients are easily accessible. This requires good coordinationand planning by the cook. This means that the heat is not wasted during the waiting period. The flame is used only for their valuable work - the heating of food.
2 Use pressure cookers because they require less energy for heating and reduce cooking times. Is there a scientific explanation. Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius at normal atmospheric pressure. When the pressure cooker atmosphere of pressure, water boils at a higher temperature. At this lower temperature thatMeat or other ingredients in the dish to get cooked faster.
3 Avoid too much water during cooking as it wastes fuel and it takes longer to evaporate. Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius in a normal pot. Remains at this temperature, no matter what continues to heat up. It 'easy to evaporate, and heat is lost through evaporation of steam. The temperature will not rise further in the water. The water is more available, more fuel needed to docooking.
4 Reduce the flame during the cooking process begins, to save fuel. This refers to article 3 above. A small flame is sufficient to maintain the boiling point of water at 100 degrees Celsius. A large flame does not bring water to a higher temperature.
5 Cover pots and pans with a lid to prevent the heat of vaporization. This in turn relates to point 3. Covering the pot with a lid, the added energy is that which prevents water loss by evaporation of steam. InIn fact, the usable energy contained in the steam used in the food and cooking.
6 Use a small burner, as it consumes 6% to 10% in less than a large gas burner. To be effective, must be transferred as much heat from the flame in the pot. With a large flame from a relatively small pot, the hot gases that are extracted along the sides of the plate less likely. Only the hot gases in contact with the plate can be extracted. Each hot gases not in contact withthe vessel, lost in the atmosphere.
7 Clean the burner, if you see an orange, yellow flame or irregular. That is, it is an incomplete combustion of fuel. Normally this is an obstacle in the passages of air or gas in the gas stove. Incomplete combustion means that a part of the fuel is not burned, but stored as carbon. It is a loss of heat the whole of the fuel.
Have yet to understand thermodynamics in order to save fuel in the stove.However, many of the strategies mentioned above is derived from an understanding of the properties of water and steam, the principles of heat transfer as conduction, convection, radiation, combustion of fuel gas burner and venturi design.
Reduce waste and maintain the efficiency - for the cook in the kitchen, not only forgotten.
