Design of Biomass Stove Using the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) Method

The design of the furnace used by community is still very simple so that combustion efficiency low. This study aims to and test performance a wood stove based on wishes needs community. uses descriptive design. sample this research 50 respondents. measuring instruments are questionnaires field observations. method in Quality Function Deployment (QFD) analyzing production House matrix ​​used making determine characteristics two stoves. In manufacture biomass using mild steel material. results showed stoves one produced faster boiling time than stove, namely 4 minutes 52 seconds for stoves, while it took 5 31 seconds. difference obtained from these tools 39 indicate more effective stove. recommends people can use fuel when cooking, easier
