Working Principle
Induction
Cooker
The mechanism of Austa Induction Cooker is based on Faraday’s law
of induction which states that, “Any change in the magnetic environment
of a coil of wire will cause a voltage (electromagnetic force or emf) to
be induced in the coil.”
Confused? In simple terms, the induction cooker consists
of a copper wire placed underneath the ceramic plate on which the
vessel is kept. An alternating electric current flows through the coil,
producing a magnetic field. This field induces an electric current,
known as Eddy Current, in the plate. The current flowing in the plate
produces resistive heat which in turn, heats the food. This ensures
that the ceramic plate on which the vessel is placed does not get
heated in area other than that below the vessel.
