CHAPTER I The Problem and Its Setting Introduction Cookers can broadly be divided into two types, namely gas cookers and electric cookers. Electric cookers can also however also be sub-divided into three types, namely radiant coil cookers, solid disc cookers and ceramic top cookers. Gas cookers power is easy to adjust and response is instant, thus providing good temperature control. Consumption of gas varies depending on the size of the burners. This type of cooker is the least efficient of
