Abstract

Nowadays, LPG tank is used for cooking. There are many dealers and manufacturers of LPG tank such as Petronas, Shell and BP. Lpg tank weight for cooking is 30.5 kilogram while gas weight in the LPG tank is 14 kilogram. Users that using LPG tank for cooking have a problem where the gas is reduce without any warning. This objectives of this research is to design and development of warning device for low pressure LPG tank. This research is conducts to help users to alert when the LPG tank is running out of gas. This device can help users to give early warning before the LPG tank is running out of gas and users can get ready to refill gas in the LPG tank. Experiment one is conduct to know the minimum pressure in the LPG tank. This minimum pressure also can be known when the weight of LPG tank reach to the minimum pressure. The weight gas in the LPG tank is fix for 14 kg, 11 kg, 8 kg, 5 kg and 2 kg. Stove will be used in burning process for half an hour for each weight. Experiment two is conduct to determine which regulator suitable for this project. The adjustable regulator is the suitable regulator for the project. While experiment three is conduct to determine the suitable pressure for cooking. The suitable pressure for cooking is 0.10 bar. Finally experiment four is conduct to determine the duration of LPG tank pressure to decrease from 0.1 bar to 0 bar. The duration of LPG tank pressure to decrease from 0.1 bar to 0 bar is 6 minutes.
