Description
Summary:Basically, this project involves in the study of the technology used in general induction cookers and to modify it into a purposed-built rice cooker. The general cooker that was understudied is the Cimatron type CM 168 cheerful cooker made in Taiwan. With the development of a suitable low cost power inverter, induction heaters look to become widely used for domestic cooking. It has many advantages over current cooking devices. It is safe, efficient, clean with fast response and able to provide very cheap closed loop control pan temperature. Induction heaters usually use coils instead of the heaters as in conventional rice cookers. The result for this is lower consumption of power for the former when compared to the latter. It is therefore economical. This thesis has contributed to an understanding of the working of the commercially produced induction cooker in order to succeed in designing a prototype for an induction cooker.
