Further Studies Of Selected Types Of Domestic Gas Stoves, Arnold E. Baragar

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

This bulletin is a supplement to Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station Research Bulletin 86. Tests were conducted in the same manner as were those described in Bulletin 86; hence, no reference has been made to experimental methods unless a test has not been previously reported. This paper is primarily concerned with (1) a discussion of cooking tops producing excessive carbon-monoxide gas, (2) more data relative to cooking-top burner efficiencies, (3) a further discussion of automatic lighters, and (4) a detailed study of ovens.

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

During recent years several detailed investigations have been made concerning the proper design of domestic gas burners but there seems to be a need for information as to the performance of the burner when used in the modern gas range. Fortunately gas equipment must pass a set of exacting tests performed in the American Gas Association Testing Laboratory before being placed on the market as approved equipment, but as is emphasized in the preface of the A. G. A. "Approval Requirements for Gas Ranges" these are a set of minimum requirements. To the general public the great need is a …
