SENAN Induction stove, also known as an induction cooktop or induction hob, is a type of cooking appliance that uses electromagnetic induction to heat cookware directly. Unlike traditional electric or gas stoves, which heat the burner surface and then transfer that heat to the cookware, an induction stove heats the cookware itself through electromagnetic fields.
Here's how an induction stove works:
Electromagnetic Coils: Beneath the surface of the induction cooktop, there are coils of copper wire. When electricity flows through these coils, it generates an electromagnetic field.
Induction Heating: When you place a compatible pot or pan on the cooktop, the electromagnetic field induces an electric current in the cookware because it is made of a ferrous (iron-containing) material. This current generates heat directly in the bottom of the cookware.
Instant Heating: Unlike gas or electric stoves, which take some time to heat up, induction stoves provide instant and precise heating. The cookware heats up quickly, and the cooking temperature can be adjusted instantly by changing the power level.
