Want to use an aluminum pan on an induction cooker?

Aluminum pots cannot be used on induction cooktops. Because: aluminum pans are not magnetic and cannot produce eddy currents, so they cannot be heated.

Because the induction cooker must have the bottom of the ferromagnetic material and the induction coil to act into heat energy, the aluminum pot is not reacting, if you must use it, you can find a 2 3mm thick round iron plate on the stove surface, put the aluminum pot on the iron plate, it is good to open the induction cooker, however, this is very unsafe, the red-hot iron plate is easy to burn people, and it will also shorten the life of the induction cooker, so it is better not to use it like this.

Last year, there was a Midea induction cooker, the user said that the furnace smoked after using the aluminum pot, and the copper wire coil inside was scorched, and everything was normal after replacement.

Induction cooker working principle: induction cooker breaks the traditional open flame cooking method, using the heating principle of magnetic field induced current (also known as eddy current), induction cooker is through the electronic circuit board components to produce alternating magnetic field, when the bottom of the iron-containing pot is placed on the stove surface, the pot is cut alternating magnetic field lines and the metal part at the bottom of the pot produces alternating current (i.e., eddy current), eddy current makes the iron molecules of the pot move irregularly at high speed, and the molecules collide with each other and rub against each other to produce heat energy. Therefore, only iron pots and pans (including stainless steel pots that attract magnets) should be used.

Attached to the pot that the induction cooker is not suitable for:

Pots and containers made of copper, aluminum, clay, and glass materials, because none of their molecules are magnetic molecules, cannot collide under the action of magnetic fields. Magnetic molecules include iron, cobalt, nickel and their oxides.

Aluminum pots cannot be used on induction cooktops. It is contrary to the principle of induction cooker.

Just add an iron sheet to make the bottom of the pot, which is equivalent to adding a medium between the aluminum pot and the induction cooker, and start a thermal bridge. However, the iron sheet added to the bottom of the pot should not be too thick, should not be too large, preferably two-thirds to three-quarters of the center area, and there should be a mesh in the middle. Hope it helps.

Colleague will be upstairs. Choose one of the two.

Induction cookers cannot use aluminum pots.

According to the working principle, an induction cooker heats food by relying on a coil in the stove; When a changing current passes through this coil, it causes it to produce a changing magnetic field; If the iron pot is placed on top of the induction cooker, the magnetic field can drive the electrons in the iron to move regularly, so as to achieve the purpose of heating. However, it cannot make the electrons in the aluminum pot move, so it cannot heat the aluminum pot.

Induction cooker is the use of electromagnetic induction to form a vortex at the bottom of the pot to work, generally used iron pots. Because iron conducts electricity and has a relatively large resistivity, eddy currents can make the bottom of the pot generate a lot of heat and use it to heat food; The resistivity of aluminum is too small to generate enough heat, so it cannot be used as a cooker for an induction cooker.

Selection of induction cooktops and pans

1. The pot above the induction cooker should use iron pots, stainless steel pots and compound bottom pots for induction cookers, which are suitable for induction cookers, and the rest of the pots are not well used on the induction cooker.

2. The iron pot is generally heavier, but it is used on the induction cooker, which can make the induction cooker quickly heat the pot, which will be very fast and convenient when stir-frying, but he has a shortcoming, once the person is not present, it is likely to burn the dish.

Aluminum pots cannot be used with induction cookers. When the changing current passes through this coil, it will produce a changing magnetic field, but the induction cooker cannot make the electrons in the aluminum pot move, so it cannot heat the aluminum pot.

If you must use an aluminum pot to cook, you can also put an iron plate on the induction cooker, and then put the aluminum pot on the iron plate to heat it up, but it can only be done occasionally, if it is like this for a long time, it is easy to damage the induction cooker.

Induction cooker is the use of electromagnetic induction in the bottom of the pot to form the principle of eddy current, generally use iron pots, because iron can conduct electricity, and the resistivity is relatively large, eddy current can make the bottom of the pot produce a lot of heat for heating.

In daily life, most of the stainless steel is also suitable for induction cookers, the traditional ceramic cauldron potato vertical pot is not suitable, and some induction cooker special clay pots are embedded in the ferromagnetic metal, making it suitable for induction cooker.
