New alloys and multilayer configuration of them to get self-regulated temperature cookware (SRTC) in induction heating

Abstract It is pointed out in this paper that the concept of self-regulating temperature cookware is valid for cooking by induction heating. This provides no overheating, improved heating rate, self-adjusted cooking temperature and further improved energy efficiency. To succeed in this, a 3-ply cladded metallic structure made of an inner stainless steel layer, a thick aluminium layer in the centre part, and an outer dedicated low-Curie-point layer made of a new FeNiCr alloy is used. The magnetic coupling between induction heater and the new structure is discussed.
