What is our Project? • Design Problem • 30 deaths and 450 injuries occur each year from improperly vented camping heaters. • Heaters are inefficient and dangerous.
Design Objectives • Heat a pre-existing insulated space • Provide clean warm air (fume separation) • Fuel Efficient • Lightweight • Marketable Product
What have we accomplished? • Dr. Ameel • Design Constraints • Brainstorming • Camp stove/heater • Candle Operated • Insulation Sheath
Research and Development • Calculation Sheet • Insulation Factors • Coats/Sleeping Bags • Design Requirements • Heat Output • Airflow Rates
