Top view of an induction cooktop. Induction cooking is a cooking process using direct electrical induction heating of cooking vessels, rather than relying on indirect radiation, convection, or thermal conduction. Induction cooking allows high power and very rapid increases in temperature to be achieved: changes in heat settings are ...
An induction cooktop involves the electrical heating of a cooking vessel by magnetic induction instead of by radiation or thermal conduction from an electrical heating element or from a flame. Because inductive heating directly heats the vessel, very rapid increases in temperature can be achieved and changes in heat settings are fast, similar ...
Induction heaters within these ranges are used on medium to larger components and applications such as the induction forging of a shaft. [1] Mains (or supply) frequency induction coils are driven directly from the standard AC supply. Most mains-frequency induction coils are designed for single phase operation, and are low-current devices ...
Energy regulator of an electric stove with a glass-ceramic hob. 1: Electric contacts (here closed); 2: Bimetal; 3: Heater for Bimetal. An infinite switch, simmerstat, energy regulator or infinite controller is a type of switch that allows variable power output of a heating element of an electric stove. It is called "infinite" because its ...
Observations of an induction hob user: The table top induction hobs that I own both use switching as part of their power control, particularly at low power settings. The switching cycle time is a few seconds in total; that is, the induction is active for a second or more and then inactive for a second or more, repeated indefinitely.
Also, the image showing an induction coil showing through a fan opening is misleading. True it is an induction coil, but it's a part of the electronic circuitry (probably a mains filter) and not the induction coil used for heating. I'll take some photos next time I open my (broken) hob up for another go at fixing it! Tsh 18:12, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
In a kitchen the hob is a projection, shelf, grate or bench for holding food or utensils at the back or side of a hearth to keep them warm, or an internal chimney-corner. In modern British English usage, the word refers to a cooktop or hotplate , as distinguished from an oven .
Thermador appliances are manufactured in different locations, depending on the type and model of the product. Most of them are made in the USA, in BSH’s factories in New Bern, [4] North Carolina, and La Follette, Tennessee.
