Abstract
The most common cause of a household gas explosion in a residential area is a gas leak from the stove burner. Even a small amount of gas can cause a fire with subsequent uncontrolled combustion. The number of explosions on the territory of the Russian Federation in multi-apartment residential buildings associated with the leakage of household gas is growing every year. As a result of the analysis of the designs of existing gas stoves and the main causes of gas leakage, a hypothesis was put forward, suggesting that one of the burner elements should be made of a moisture-absorbing material that can serve as a blocker for the channels of gas entering the environment when wet. The conducted studies have shown the operability of a burner with a working body made of expanded perlite. At this stage of the experiments, the following combination will be the optimal combination of structural elements: the weighted average size of expanded perlite is 0.5 mm, the divider is filled with working fluid by 40%, the number of outlets in the burner cover is 20 pcs.
