Hysteresis in Induction Cooking

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

Hysteresis plays a crucial role in induction cooking by influencing the heating power of induction plates. The area of the hysteresis loop directly correlates with the energy transferred during the cycle of induced magnetization of the cookware material. This energy transfer results in effective heating of both the pan and its contents, making hysteresis a fundamental concept in understanding the efficiency of induction cooking systems.

Hi all, I was researching into Induction Cooking (using induction plates) recently and chanced upon a few websites that mentioned about hysteresis in Induction Cooking. However I don't really get how does hysteresis have a part to play in Induction Cooking. :/
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The area of the hysteresis loop represents the heating power.
 
The hysteresis is due to the cycle of induced magnetisation of the material of the pan. Each cycle, there is some energy transferred, which heats the pane and contents.
