Can I use an ordinary iron pot on the induction cooker?

It can be used, but it must be a flat-bottomed pot with a plane diameter greater than 8 cm.

1. Induction cooker, also known as induction cooker, is the product of modern kitchen revolution. It allows heat to be generated directly at the bottom of the pot, without naked flame or conduction heating, so the thermal efficiency is greatly improved. It is an efficient and energy-saving kitchen utensil, which is completely different from all traditional kitchen utensils with or without fire conduction heating.

2. The induction cooker is an electric cooking appliance made by electromagnetic induction heating principle. It consists of a high-frequency induction heating coil, a high-frequency power conversion device, a controller and a ferromagnetic pot bottom.

3. When in use, alternating current is applied to the heating coil, and an alternating magnetic field is generated around the coil. Most of the magnetic lines of the alternating magnetic field pass through the metal pot, which produces a lot of eddy currents at the bottom of the pot, thus generating the heat needed for cooking. There is no open flame in the heating process, which is safe and hygienic.

Because the induction cooker generates heat by directly inducing a magnetic field at the bottom of the pot, iron sensitive to magnetism should be selected as the cooker. Because iron fully absorbs the magnetic field, it has a very good shielding effect and reduces a lot of magnetic radiation, so the iron pot is safer than any other cooker. In addition, iron is a substance that is beneficial to human health, and it is also a necessary element for human body to take in for a long time. It has the advantages of no thermal radiation, small size, good safety and beautiful appearance, and can complete most cooking tasks in the family.
