DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF LOW COST ELECTRIC BAKING OVEN

Abstract

The paper reports on the design and construction of a domestic electric basic oven. The aim of this research work is to improve on the already existing electric baking oven through the incorporation of a blower and interlock switch. The joining techniques and handling of the equipment for optimum usage was explained in details. The AUTOCAD design shows the pictorial views, lines and dimensions for its mass production purposes. The electric baking oven was put to test in order to determine its functionability   and effectiveness through some food items. When the elecrtric baking oven was tested, higher efficiency is obtained when compared with the already existing one. Therefore, it can be deduced that the designed project is faster and thus baked effectively when compared with existing one.

Keywords: Electric baking oven, blower, interlock switch, joining techniques, equipment, functionality, effectiveness.
