Abstract

The main aim of our project is to utilize the heat which is wasted from the gas burner in the kitchen to clean the dishes from hot water. The copper tubes are mounted below the gas burner. The water will be passed through these tubes. Then the water coming out from the copper tubes will be hot as the heat will be transferred from the gas burner and then through the copper tubes to the water. This hot water will be then passed through the PCM i.e. Phase change material. The heat will be transferred from the water to the PCM so that temperature of PCM gets increased and after some time it will change its phase. The water will be then collected in the tank. The flow control valve will be used to control the flow rate of water. The pump will be placed after the tank and the nozzle will be placed so that the water will be sprayed on the dishes to clean.

When the burner is in off condition then at that time the heat will be transferred from the PCM to the water so that  temperature of PCM will be decreased. But the temperature of water will be increased so that we will get the required output temperature of water to clean the dishes. The 3D model will be drawn with the help of CATIA software. The analysis will be carried out on ANSYS software. The experimental testing will be carried out and then the result and conclusion will be  drawn.
