Estimating the term…
A method for controlling an inductive heating system of a cooking hob provided with an induction coil is disclosed. The method controls it in connection with a predetermined working condition, comprises assessing the value of power absorbed by the system, measuring a temperature indicative of the thermal status of at least one element of the heating system, feeding the assessed power value to a computing model capable of providing an estimated value of temperature, comparing the measured temperature with the estimated temperature and tuning the computing model on the basis of such comparison.
A method for controlling an inductive heating system of a cooktop provided with an induction coil, for controlling it in connection with a predetermined working condition, characterized in that it comprises the steps of:
A cooking appliance comprising an induction heating system with an induction coil and a control circuit, characterized in that the control circuit is adapted to measure at least one temperature indicative of the thermal status of at least one element of the heating system and it comprises a computing model adapted to be fed with as assessed value of the power adsorbed by the system, such computing model being adapted to provide an estimated value of temperature and to compare such value to the measured temperature in order to tune the computing model on the basis of such comparison.
