Induction heating works on a stove by using electromagnetic induction to generate eddy currents within a conductive metal, such as a cooking pot or pan, which then produces heat through Joule heating.
This process is efficient and non-contact, meaning the heat is generated directly within the metal without the need for a flame or heating element to touch the cookware.
4 Key Steps Explained
1. Electromagnetic Induction
An induction stove contains a coil that carries an alternating current, creating a rapidly changing magnetic field.
2. Eddy Currents
When a magnetic, conductive cookware is placed on the stove, the changing magnetic field induces eddy currents in the cookware.
3. Joule Heating
The resistance of the metal cookware to the flow of these eddy currents generates heat, which is then used for cooking.
4. Efficiency and Non-Contact Heating
The heat is generated directly within the cookware itself, reducing wasted heat and improving energy efficiency.
This direct heating also allows for faster response times, as the heat is produced where it is needed, rather than being transferred from an external source.
