Examples of cooking
applications
The relation between the heat setting and
the cooking zone consumption of power is
not linear. When you increase the heat
setting, it is not proportional to the
increase of the cooking zone consumption
of power. It means that the cooking zone
with the medium heat setting uses less
than a half of its power.
