Abstract

Dairy farmers have a real problem in providing hot water at not too great a cost. A gas heater producing hot water and steam for dairy farm use was studied to determine (1) the time to produce hot water and steam, (2) the uniformity of temperature within the steam chest, (3) the efficiency in killing E. coli in 10-gallon milk cans, (4) the fuel efficiency of the heater, and (5) the cost of operation. The authors believe that a gas water heater of the type investigated could lend itself satisfactorily to New England dairy farms.
