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 ...
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)
[citation needed] In so-called "tri-ply" cookware, the central aluminum layer is paramagnetic, and the interior 18/10 layer may also, but the exterior layer at the base must be ferromagnetic to be compatible with induction cooktops. Stainless steel does not require seasoning to protect the surface from rust, but may be seasoned to provide a non ...
Component of Stirling radioisotope generator is heated by induction during testing. Induction heating is the process of heating electrically conductive materials, namely metals or semi-conductors, by electromagnetic induction, through heat transfer passing through an inductor that creates an electromagnetic field within the coil to heat up and possibly melt steel, copper, brass, graphite, gold ...
