This study is concerned with designing calibrating
and operating a liquid fuel system for firing ceramic
work as an alternative to traditional firing methods
such as gas and wood firing, A “coil burner” was
chosen and re-designed to eliminate prime movers
such as fans, pumps and blowers. Kerosene, the fuel,
was delivered by gravity feed, with a little water
added to assist automization. Temperature of 1280°C
and above, which are required for glazing ceramic
works were achieved. The result was a more rugged
fuel firing system without prime movers, a system
which can be operated even in rural settings where
ceramic activities need to be encouraged.
