Heat generated from a burning charcoal enters the smoking chamber through the perforated pipes. The kiln maintained a relatively uniform temperature of 600C at all the trays inside the chamber and smoke an ice fish satisfactorily within 4 hours. The fuel consumption rate was 1.25kghr-1 and the thermal efficiency obtained was 93.6%.
