IH cooking mechanism

IH (Induction Heating) refers to electromagnetic induction heating.

If electricity flows in the magnetic coils underneath the top plate, magnetic lines of force are produced.

When the magnetic lines of force pass through metallic cookware, an eddy current is induced, and the heat that is generated by the electrical resistance of the cookware is used for heating.
