Induction Cooking: How Do Coil/Pan Characteristics Affect Heating Ability? (.PDF Download)

Oct. 23, 2015

Use of electromagnetic induction for cooking purposes is witnessing widespread uptake around the globe. The market for induction-based hobs is set to progress at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.83% between now and 2018 (according to industry-analyst firm TechNavio). However, the way that induction cooking is being implemented varies quite significantly, with different regions following their own unique path. In this article, we will look at the equivalent circuits for quasi-resonant cookers and coil characteristics relating to the various pan materials employed...
