- Fig. 1 shows an induction hob with an induction heating element 10, which is arranged below a cover plate 32 of the induction cooktop.
- the cover plate 32 is formed of glass or glass ceramic.
- Under the cover plate 32 is in the region of the induction heating 10 shows a temperature sensor 12 for indirectly measuring a cookware temperature 20 (FIG. Fig. 4 ) arranged.
- the temperature sensor 12 immediately measures a sensor temperature 14 (FIG. Fig. 4 ) of the actual temperature sensor 12, which may be different from the cookware temperature 20 due to the lack of direct thermal contact between the temperature sensor 12 and a set on the cover plate 32 of the induction cooktop cooking utensil 18, especially at rapidly varying cookware temperatures 20.

- the control unit 16 can store data in a storage unit 24 of the induction hob, or read data from the storage unit 24.
- the user can actuate the induction hob via a user interface 28 operated by the control unit 16, which is shown here only schematically and can be designed, for example, as a touch screen or as a conventional arrangement of control knobs.
- the cookware element 18 When the cookware element 18 is positioned in the region of the induction heating element 10 on the cover plate 32, the cookware element 18 influences the electrical and electromagnetic properties of the overall system composed of the induction heating element 10 and the cookware element 18.
- an inductance of the cooking utensil element 18 influences an inductance L of the induction heating element 10 formed as an induction coil, and the power dissipated by eddy currents in the bottom of the cooking element 18 increases a loss angle of the induction heating element 10 and an apparent resistance R of the induction heating element 10, respectively.
- An electrical auto-calibration function of the control unit 16 is used to determine a pair of electrical parameters, in particular for determining the inductance L and the resistance R of the cookware element 18 or of the overall system.
- the control unit 16 uses the thus determined pair of electrical characteristics L, R for identifying the cookware element 18, which is placed on the cover plate 32.
- the control unit 16 reads from memory unit 24 a thermal parameter Tpot, TGlass specific to the identified cookware element 18 and uses it these thermal parameters Tpot, TGlass as parameters of a function by means of which the control unit 16 determines an estimated value for the cookware temperature 20 from the sensor temperature 14.
- the function is a numerical model or a simulation of the dynamic behavior of the overall system comprising the cookware element 18 and the induction heating element 10, which takes into account in particular the thermal behavior of the parts involved.
- the numerical model depends in particular on two parameters, namely the first parameter Tpot, which describes the energy transfer between the induction coil of the induction heating element 10 and the cookware element 18 or a delay in this energy transfer, and a second parameter TGlass, which describes a heat transfer between the cookware element 18 and the temperature sensor 12 describes. If these parameters Tpot, TGlass are known, the control unit 16 can determine the cookware temperature 20 from the course of the sensor temperature and / or from a functional value of the heating power fed by the induction heating element 10.
- Fig. 2 schematically shows the sequence of an executed by the control unit 16 operating program.
- a first step 34 it is checked whether the automatic calibration mode is switched on. If yes, in a step 36 an electrical calibration is started, in which first in a step 38 the values of the electrical characteristics L, R are determined from an impedance of the overall system composed of the cookware element 18 and the induction heating element 10.
- the control unit 16 checks whether the value pair of the parameters L, R within a predetermined tolerance with a corresponding value pair L i , R i of a stored in the storage unit 24 cooking utensil element coincides.
- the cookware element 18 is identified as one of the cookware elements already stored in the storage unit 24, and the control unit 16 reads out the thermal parameter Tpot i associated with that cookware element from the storage unit 24.
- control unit 16 also determines second cooking element thermal parameter Tglass 18, which is stronger than first thermal parameter Tpot from a position of cookware element 18 relative to induction heating element 10 and a second Bombing a bottom of the cooking utensil 18 is dependent.
- control unit 16 automatically switches to a safety mode in which the induction heating element 10 is operated at a low heat output to avoid overheating. The same applies if the calibration fails.
- FIGS. 3 and 4 show the time course of a heating power of the induction heater 10, or a sensor temperature 14, a resulting from the dynamic model for the thermal behavior of the cooking utensil element 18 value of the cookware temperature 20 and an actual value 46 of the cookware temperature.
- the heating power is set in the calibration program 22 in a first phase 48 by the control unit 16 to a very high value and then, after about 2 minutes, reduced to a lower heating power level 50.
- the high heating power in the first phase 48 results in a rapid rise in the cookware temperature 20, followed by a rise in the sensor temperature 14 with some delay.
- the cookware temperature 20 approaches an asymptotic limit and adjusts to the sensor temperature 14.
- this behavior differs for different cookware elements.
- the gradient of the first, rapid rise of the cookware temperature 20 is mainly dependent on the first thermal parameter Tpot, while the asymptotic value of the cookware temperature and the sensor temperature, respectively, depends mainly on the second thermal parameter TGlass.
- the control unit 16 simulates the course of the sensor temperature 14 for different value pairs of thermal parameters Tpot, TGlass, compares the simulation result with the actually measured curve of the sensor temperature 14 and selects that Value pair Tpot, TGlass, in which the simulation result has the smallest deviation from the actually measured time profile of the sensor temperature 14.
- the determination of the optimal values for the thermal parameters Tpot, TGlass can take place in any multidimensional optimization method, for example also by evaluating pairs of values, which in a two-dimensional representation, in which the values of the individual parameters correspond to the respective coordinate axes, in a rectangular matrix are arranged, for example, 6 x 6 or 8 x 8 or 4 x 6 points (see. FIGS. 5 and 6 ).
- the control unit 16 calculates for each of the models represented by a pair of values of the thermal parameters Tpot, TGlass the progression of the cookware temperature 20 and the curve of the sensor temperature 14 and compares the thus calculated profile of the sensor temperature 14 with the measured value of the temperature sensor 12.
- the calibration program 22 determines the one Model that allows the lowest sensor temperature error and thus the best temperature estimate.
- FIG. 12 shows the cook line temperature isolines 20 that are substantially horizontal while the time-varying isolines of the sensor temperature 14 are tilted during the course of the calibration program 22 and during the cooking process, respectively, with respect to the x-axis.
- the sensor temperature isolines are therefore determined solely by the value of the parameter TGlass.
- the fully automated thermal calibration therefore determines the correctly discretized model depending on the time course of the measurement of the sensor temperature 14.
- the control unit 16 determines in which of the columns of the model matrix in the representations in FIG FIGS. 5 and 6 the lowest sensor temperature error is reached.
- control unit 16 determines the correct line depending on the timing of the sensor temperature isolines. If both the correct row and the correct column of the model matrix are known, the value of the thermal parameter Tpot can be easily determined.
- models calculated by the control unit 16 are shown as circles with thin edge lines, the characteristics of the actual cookware 18 by a filled circle, and the model with the minimum sensor temperature error as a circle with thick edge line.
- Fig. 7 shows an equivalent circuit diagram of the induction cooktop with the induction heating element 10 and the cookware element 18 comprehensive overall system 52, which can be represented by a series connection of a resistor R and an inductance L.
- the induction cooktop control unit 16 measures various values of load current, voltage and power. These electrical parameters are specific to the cookware element heated by the induction heating element 10.
- Fig. 8 shows temperature curves of a cookware temperature 20 for various cookware elements. It turns out that the smaller the parameter Tpot, which describes a thermal coupling between the cookware element and the induction heating element, the faster the cookware temperature 20 increases.
- Fig. 9 shows the electrical characteristics of various cookware elements, each of which can be represented by a vector in a two-dimensional vector space.
- Each of the points in Fig. 9 corresponds to a value pair L, PF from the inductance L and a power factor PF, which corresponds to the ratio of the resistance R and the amount of impedance Z.
- Fig. 9 also shows a tolerance range 54. If the values L, R determined in step 38 are within the tolerance range 54, the cookware element is associated with the stored cookware element corresponding to the value pair described by the point in the center of the tolerance range 54. The cookware element 18 to be identified is identified as this already calibrated cookware element.
- the calibration program 22 is partially automated and requires user intervention.
- the induction hob is equipped with a in Fig. 1 equipped temperature sensor element 30, which is designed as a thermochromic element or as a thermochromic sticker.
- the operator places or glues the temperature sensor element 30 onto a surface of the cookware element 18 and actuates a corresponding switch of the user interface 28 as soon as the temperature sensor element 30 changes color. This color change occurs when the cookware temperature 20 has reached a target value.
- the control unit 16 reads the signal from the user interface 28 and determines the thermal parameter Tpot depending on the elapsed time to receive the user signal time or depending on the up to the receipt of the user signal in the cookware element 18 coupled heating power.
- the temperature sensor element 30 can be read out contactlessly by the control unit 16, for example when the temperature sensor element 30 comprises an RFID chip.
- the control unit 16 implements a method for operating an induction hob with an induction heating element 10 and a temperature sensor 12 for determining the sensor temperature 14.
- a cookware element 18 is identified by means of at least one electrical characteristic L, R of the cookware element 18, and a cookware temperature 20 of the cookware element 18 is Normal operation depending on at least the sensor temperature 14 and a specific for the cookware element 18 thermal parameters Tpot, TGlass determined.
- the thermal parameter Tpot, TGlass if this is not already known, determined and the electrical characteristics L, R associated with the cookware 18.
- the pot When an already calibrated pot or cooking element is already set up on the induction hob, the pot can be easily detected by a quick determination of the electrical parameters L, R and the thermal parameters Tpot, TGlass can be read from the storage unit 24, so that a short heating time can be achieved.
- the calibration scheme allows for good cooking results that are accurate to those of a system pan.
- An inventive hob is inexpensive to implement and largely independent of the used cookware element used. Above the cover plate 32 arranged temperature sensors can be avoided.

Die Aufgabe wird insbesondere durch die Merkmale der unabhängigen Patentansprüche gelöst, während sich vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung aus den Unteransprüchen ergeben.The object is achieved in particular by the features of the independent patent claims, while advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention result from the subclaims.
Die Erfindung geht insbesondere aus von einem Induktionskochfeld mit wenigstens einem Induktionsheizelement und mit wenigstens einem Temperatursensor zum Bestimmen einer Sensortemperatur, sowie mit einer Steuereinheit zum Identifizieren eines Kochgeschirrelements mittels wenigstens einer elektrischen Kenngröße des Kochgeschirrelements. Die Steuereinheit nutzt zum Bestimmen einer Kochgeschirrtemperatur des Kochgeschirrelements eine Funktion, die wenigstens von der Sensortemperatur und von wenigstens einem für das Kochgeschirrelement spezifischen thermischen Parameter abhängt.The invention is based in particular on an induction hob with at least one induction heating element and with at least one temperature sensor for determining a Sensor temperature, as well as with a control unit for identifying a cooking utensil element by means of at least one electrical characteristic of the cooking utensil element. The control unit uses a function depending on the sensor temperature and at least one thermal parameter specific to the cookware element to determine a cookware temperature of the cookware element.
Es wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Steuereinheit zum Ausführen eines zumindest teilautomatisierten Kalibrierungsprogramms zum Bestimmen des thermischen Parameters und zum Zuordnen des thermischen Parameters zu der elektrischen Kenngröße ausgelegt ist. Durch das Kalibrierungsprogramm können beliebige Kochgeschirrelemente mit zunächst für das Induktionskochfeld unbekannten thermischen Eigenschaften so kalibriert werden, dass sie wie bekannte Systemkochtöpfe und insbesondere auch in einem temperaturgeregelten Betrieb genutzt werden können. Die Zuordnung bzw. Verknüpfung zwischen den thermischen Eigenschaften einerseits und den elektrischen Kenngrößen andererseits kann dazu genutzt werden, in späteren Verwendungen des kalibrierten Kochgeschirrelements eine schnelle und einfache Identifikation mittels der elektrischen Eigenschaften zu ermöglichen und die thermischen Parameter aus einer Speichereinheit des Induktionskochfelds bzw. der Steuereinheit auszulesen.It is proposed that the control unit is designed to execute an at least partially automated calibration program for determining the thermal parameter and for assigning the thermal parameter to the electrical parameter. By means of the calibration program, any cookware elements with thermal properties that are initially unknown for the induction hob can be calibrated so that they can be used like known system cookers and in particular also in a temperature-controlled mode. The assignment or linkage between the thermal properties on the one hand and the electrical parameters on the other hand can be used to enable rapid and simple identification by means of the electrical properties in later uses of the calibrated cooking utensil element and the thermal parameters from a storage unit of the induction hob or the control unit read.
Als elektrische Kenngrößen sollen in diesem Zusammenhang auch elektromagnetische bzw. magnetische Kenngrößen bezeichnet werden, beispielsweise ein Induktionskoeffizient des Kochgeschirrelements und/oder eine Impedanz des Kochgeschirrelements. Die Steuereinheit kann durch eine geeignete Software oder auch durch eine spezielle Hardware zum Ausführen des Kalibrierungsprogramms ausgelegt sein. Als thermische Parameter kommen insbesondere Kenngrößen für thermische Eigenschaften des Kochgeschirrelements in Betracht, die eine Reaktion des Kochgeschirrelements auf von dem Induktionsheizelement in dem Kochgeschirrelement bzw. in dessen Boden erzeugte Wärme und/oder eine Kopplung zwischen dem Kochgeschirrelement und dem Temperatursensor beschreiben.As electrical parameters in this context, electromagnetic or magnetic characteristics are to be referred to, for example, an induction coefficient of the cooking utensil element and / or an impedance of the cooking utensil element. The control unit may be designed by suitable software or by special hardware for executing the calibration program. As thermal parameters are in particular characteristics for thermal properties of the cooking utensil element into consideration, which describe a reaction of the cooking utensil on the induction heating element in the cookware element or in the soil heat generated and / or a coupling between the cookware element and the temperature sensor.
In einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Steuereinheit dazu ausgelegt ist, zum Identifizieren des Kochgeschirrelements wenigstens zwei unabhängige elektrische Kenngrößen des Kochgeschirrelements zu nutzen. Dadurch kann eine sichere und insbesondere eindeutige Identifizierung des Kochgeschirrelements erreicht werden, die durch die Verwendung von drei oder mehr elektrischen Kenngrößen bzw. durch das Erfassen von Frequenzabhängigkeiten der elektrischen Kenngrößen weiter verbessert werden kann. Ein erfasster Vektor von elektrischen Kenngrößen kann wie ein Fingerabdruck zur Identifikation des Kochgeschirrelements genutzt werden.In a further development of the invention, it is proposed that the control unit is designed to use at least two independent electrical characteristics of the cookware element for identifying the cooking utensil element. This can be a safe and in particular unambiguous identification of the cooking utensil element can be achieved, which can be further improved by the use of three or more electrical characteristics or by detecting frequency dependencies of the electrical characteristics. A detected vector of electrical characteristics can be used like a fingerprint to identify the cooking utensil.
Wenn die Steuereinheit das teilautomatisierte Kalibrierungsprogramm zumindest dann ausführt, wenn die elektrische Kenngröße keinem in einer Speichereinheit gespeicherten Datensatz für ein Kochgeschirrelement zugeordnet werden kann, kann ein unnötiges Kalibrieren bereits gespeicherter Kochgeschirrelemente vermieden werden und ein unkontrollierter Heizbetrieb mit unkalibrierten Kochgeschirrelementen kann nicht stattfinden.If the control unit executes the semi-automated calibration program at least when the electrical characteristic can not be associated with a cookware element data set stored in a storage unit, unnecessary calibration of already stored cookware elements can be avoided and uncontrolled heating operation with uncalcined cookware elements can not occur.
Eine hinreichend genaue Modellierung bzw. Simulation des thermischen Verhaltens des Kochgeschirrelements kann erreicht werden, wenn die Funktion zum Bestimmen des Kochgeschirrelements von wenigstens zwei thermischen Parametern abhängt. Als thermische Parameter kommen beispielsweise Reaktionszeiten in Betracht, die eine Verzögerung der Wärmeübertragung zwischen dem Induktionsheizelement und dem Kochgeschirrelement bzw. zwischen dem Kochgeschirrelement und dem Temperatursensor beschreiben. Ferner können Wärmekapazitäten oder dergleichen als thermische Parameter verwendet werden.A sufficiently precise modeling or simulation of the thermal behavior of the cooking utensil element can be achieved if the function for determining the cooking utensil element depends on at least two thermal parameters. As thermal parameters, for example, reaction times are considered which describe a delay in the heat transfer between the induction heating element and the cookware element or between the cookware element and the temperature sensor. Further, heat capacities or the like may be used as thermal parameters.
Wenn die Steuereinheit dazu ausgelegt ist, in dem Kalibrierungsprogramm automatisch die wenigstens eine elektrische Kenngröße des Kochgeschirrelements zu bestimmen und eine Sequenz von vorgegebenen Heizleistungsstufen zu erzeugen, bis ein Bediener über eine Benutzerschnittstelle das Erreichen eines Sollwerts der Kochgeschirrtemperatur signalisiert, kann das Kalibrierungsprogramm ohne aufwendige Sensorik durchgeführt werden. Ein Sensor zum unmittelbaren Detektieren der Kochgeschirrtemperatur, der automatisch von der Steuereinheit ausgelesen wird, kann durch die Benutzerinteraktion vermieden werden.If the controller is adapted to automatically determine in the calibration program the at least one electrical characteristic of the cookware element and to generate a sequence of predetermined heat output levels until an operator signals the attainment of a cookware temperature setpoint via a user interface, the calibration program may be performed without expensive sensor technology become. A sensor for immediately detecting the cookware temperature, which is automatically read by the control unit, can be avoided by the user interaction.
Um dem Benutzer das Bestimmen der Kochgeschirrtemperatur in einer komfortablen Weise zu ermöglichen, kann das Induktionskochfeld mit einem Temperatursensorelement zum unmittelbaren Bestimmen der Kochgeschirrtemperatur im Kalibrierungsprogramm ausgestattet sein. Das Temperatursensorelement kann beispielsweise als thermochromes Element ausgebildet sein, das beim Erreichen des Sollwerts der Kochgeschirrtemperatur seine Farbe ändert. Solche thermochromen Sticker, die in direkten Kontakt mit einer Oberfläche des Kochgeschirrelements gebracht werden können, sind kostengünstig verfügbar und einfach anwendbar.In order to allow the user to determine cookware temperature in a comfortable manner, the induction hob may be equipped with a temperature sensor element for directly determining cookware temperature in the calibration program. The temperature sensor element can be used, for example, as a thermochromic Element be formed that changes its color when it reaches the setpoint of the cookware temperature. Such thermochromic stickers, which can be brought into direct contact with a surface of the cooking utensil, are available inexpensively and easily applicable.
Unsicherheiten durch den Benutzereingriff können vermieden werden, wenn die Steuereinheit zum vollautomatischen Ausführen des Kalibrierungsprogramms ausgelegt ist. Zum Bestimmen des thermischen Parameters kann die Steuereinheit wenigstens eine Kenngröße des zeitlichen Verlaufs der Sensortemperatur ermitteln, beispielsweise einen asymptotischen Wert der Sensortemperatur und/oder einen Gradienten der Sensortemperatur. Der Gradient kann eine Kenngröße für eine Geschwindigkeit eines Anstiegs der Sensortemperatur bilden. Als elektrische Kenngrößen kommen eine Induktivität des Kochgeschirrelements, ein Widerstand des Kochgeschirrelements oder ein aus der Induktivität und dem Widerstand zusammengesetzter Leistungsfaktor des Kochgeschirrelements in Betracht.Uncertainties due to user intervention can be avoided if the control unit is designed to run the calibration program fully automatically. To determine the thermal parameter, the control unit can determine at least one parameter of the time profile of the sensor temperature, for example an asymptotic value of the sensor temperature and / or a gradient of the sensor temperature. The gradient may provide a measure of a rate of increase in sensor temperature. As electrical parameters are an inductance of the cooking utensil, a resistance of the cooking utensil or a composite of the inductance and the resistance power factor of the cookware element into consideration.
In einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Steuereinheit dazu ausgelegt ist, dann, wenn die elektrische Kenngröße keinem in einer Speichereinheit gespeicherten Datensatz für ein Kochgeschirrelement zugeordnet werden kann, das Induktionsheizelement in einem Sicherheitsmodus mit einer geringen Heizleistung zu betreiben.In a further development of the invention, it is proposed that the control unit is designed to operate the induction heating element in a safety mode with a low heat output when the electrical parameter can not be assigned to a data set stored for a cookware element in a storage unit.
Ein weiterer Aspekt der Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Betreiben eines Induktionskochfelds mit wenigstens einem Induktionsheizelement und wenigstens einem Temperatursensor zum Bestimmen einer Sensortemperatur. Dazu wird ein Kochgeschirrelement mittels wenigstens einer elektrischen Kenngröße des Kochgeschirrelements identifiziert. Eine Kochgeschirrtemperatur des Kochgeschirrelements wird im Normalbetrieb abhängig von wenigstens der Sensortemperatur und wenigstens einem für das Kochgeschirrelement spezifischen thermischen Parameter bestimmt.A further aspect of the invention relates to a method for operating an induction hob with at least one induction heating element and at least one temperature sensor for determining a sensor temperature. For this purpose, a cookware element is identified by means of at least one electrical parameter of the cookware element. A cookware temperature of the cookware element is determined in normal operation depending on at least the sensor temperature and at least one thermal parameter specific to the cookware element.
Um eine Bestimmung der Kochgeschirrtemperatur auch für Kochgeschirrelemente mit unbekanntem thermischen Parameter zu ermöglichen, wird vorgeschlagen, dass das Verfahren zum Bestimmen des thermischen Parameters und zum Zuordnen des thermischen Parameters zu der elektrischen Kenngröße ein zumindest teilautomatisiertes Kalibrierungsprogramm umfasst.In order to make it possible to determine the cookware temperature also for cookware elements with unknown thermal parameters, it is proposed that the method for determining the thermal parameter and for assigning the thermal parameter to the electrical parameter comprise an at least partially automated calibration program.

Das Induktionsheizelement 10 und der Temperatursensor 12 sind mit einer Steuereinheit 16 des Induktionskochfelds verbunden, die das Induktionsheizelement 10 betreibt und die Messdaten des Temperatursensors 12 auslesen kann. Die Steuereinheit 16 kann Daten in einer Speichereinheit 24 des Induktionskochfelds speichern, bzw. Daten aus der Speichereinheit 24 auslesen. Der Benutzer kann das Induktionskochfeld über eine von der Steuereinheit 16 betriebene Benutzerschnittstelle 28 betätigen, die hier nur schematisch dargestellt ist und beispielsweise als Touchscreen oder als konventionelle Anordnung von Bedienknebeln ausgebildet sein kann.The
Wenn das Kochgeschirrelement 18 im Bereich des Induktionsheizelements 10 auf der Abdeckplatte 32 abgestellt ist, beeinflusst das Kochgeschirrelement 18 die elektrischen und elektromagnetischen Eigenschaften des aus dem Induktionsheizelement 10 und dem Kochgeschirrelement 18 zusammengesetzten Gesamtsystems. Insbesondere beeinflusst eine Induktivität des Kochgeschirrelements 18 eine Induktivität L des als Induktionsspule ausgebildeten Induktionsheizelements 10, und die durch Wirbelströme im Boden des Kochgeschirrelements 18 dissipierte Leistung erhöht einen Verlustwinkel des Induktionsheizelements 10 bzw. einen scheinbaren Widerstand R des Induktionsheizelements 10.When the
Eine elektrische Autokalibrierungsfunktion der Steuereinheit 16 dient zum Bestimmen eines Paars von elektrischen Kenngrößen, insbesondere zum Bestimmen der Induktivität L und des Widerstands R des Kochgeschirrelements 18 bzw. des Gesamtsystems. Die Steuereinheit 16 nutzt das derart bestimmte Paar von elektrischen Kenngrößen L, R zum Identifizieren des Kochgeschirrelements 18, das auf der Abdeckplatte 32 aufgestellt ist.An electrical auto-calibration function of the
Wenn das Kochgeschirrelement 18 wie weiter unten beschrieben identifiziert werden konnte, liest die Steuereinheit 16 aus der Speichereinheit 24 einen für das identifizierte Kochgeschirrelement 18 spezifischen thermischen Parameter Tpot, TGlass aus und nutzt diesen thermischen Parameter Tpot, TGlass als Parameter einer Funktion, mittels derer die Steuereinheit 16 einen Schätzwert für die Kochgeschirrtemperatur 20 aus der Sensortemperatur 14 bestimmt. Die Funktion ist ein numerisches Modell bzw. eine Simulation des dynamischen Verhaltens des das Kochgeschirrelement 18 und das Induktionsheizelement 10 umfassenden Gesamtsystems, welches insbesondere das thermische Verhalten der beteiligten Teile berücksichtigt. Das numerische Modell hängt insbesondere von zwei Parametern ab, und zwar von dem ersten Parameter Tpot, der die Energieübertragung zwischen der Induktionsspule des Induktionsheizelements 10 und dem Kochgeschirrelement 18 bzw. eine Verzögerung dieser Energieübertragung beschreibt, und von einem zweiten Parameter TGlass, der eine Wärmeübertragung zwischen dem Kochgeschirrelement 18 und dem Temperatursensor 12 beschreibt. Wenn diese Parameter Tpot, TGlass bekannt sind, kann die Steuereinheit 16 aus dem Verlauf der Sensortemperatur und/oder aus einem Funktional der von dem Induktionsheizelement 10 eingespeisten Heizleistung die Kochgeschirrtemperatur 20 bestimmen.If the
Wenn dies der Fall ist, wird das Kochgeschirrelement 18 als eines der bereits in der Speichereinheit 24 gespeicherten Kochgeschirrelemente identifiziert und die Steuereinheit 16 liest den diesem Kochgeschirrelement zugeordneten thermischen Parameter Tpoti aus der Speichereinheit 24 aus. Während des Betriebs des Induktionsheizelements 10 bzw. während des Aufheizens des Kochgeschirrelements 18 bestimmt die Steuereinheit 16 zudem den zweiten thermischen Parameter TGlass des Kochgeschirrelements 18, der stärker als der erste thermische Parameter Tpot von einer Position des Kochgeschirrelements 18 relativ zu dem Induktionsheizelement 10 und von einer Bombierung eines Bodens des Kochgeschirrelements 18 abhängig ist.If this is the case, the
Wenn in dem Schritt 40 keine Übereinstimmung zwischen dem Wertepaar L, R und einem der gespeicherten Wertepaare Li, Ri (i = 1 ... n) gefunden wird, startet die Steuereinheit 16 in einem Schritt 42 ein Kalibrierungsprogramm 22, in welchem der thermische Parameter Tpot, wie weiter unten detaillierter beschrieben, bestimmt wird. Nach einer erfolgreichen Bestimmung des thermischen Parameters Tpot wird der erste thermische Parameter Tpot zusammen mit den elektrischen Kenngrößen L, R als neue, dem neu kalibrierten Kochgeschirrelement 18 zugeordnete Datenstruktur in einem Schritt 44 in der Speichereinheit 24 gespeichert.If no match is found between the value pair L, R and one of the stored value pairs L i , R i (i = 1... N) in the
Wenn der Bediener über die Benutzerschnittstelle 28 signalisiert, dass er die Ausführung des Kalibrierungsprogramms 22 nicht wünscht, schaltet die Steuereinheit 16 automatisch in einen Sicherheitsmodus, in welchem das Induktionsheizelement 10 mit einer geringen Heizleistung betrieben wird, um ein Überhitzen zu vermeiden. Das Gleiche gilt dann, wenn die Kalibrierung fehlschlägt.If the operator signals via the
Die
Die Steuereinheit 16 simuliert den Verlauf der Sensortemperatur 14 für verschiedene Wertepaare von thermischen Parametern Tpot, TGlass, vergleicht das Simulationsergebnis mit dem tatsächlich gemessenen Verlauf der Sensortemperatur 14 und wählt dasjenige Wertepaar Tpot, TGlass aus, bei dem das Simulationsergebnis die geringste Abweichung zu dem tatsächlich gemessenen zeitlichen Verlauf der Sensortemperatur 14 aufweist. Das Bestimmen der optimalen Werte für die thermischen Parameter Tpot, TGlass kann in einem beliebigen mehrdimensionalen Optimierungsverfahren erfolgen, beispielsweise auch durch das Auswerten von Wertepaaren, die in einer zweidimensionalen Darstellung, in der die Werte der einzelnen Parameter den jeweiligen Koordinatenachsen entsprechen, in einer rechtwinkligen Matrix von beispielsweise 6 x 6 oder 8 x 8 oder auch 4 x 6 Punkten angeordnet sind (vgl.
Die Steuereinheit 16 berechnet für jedes der durch ein Wertepaar der thermischen Parameter Tpot, TGlass repräsentierten Modelle den Verlauf der Kochgeschirrtemperatur 20 und den Verlauf der Sensortemperatur 14 und vergleicht den derart berechneten Verlauf der Sensortemperatur 14 mit dem Messwert des Temperatursensors 12. Das Kalibrierungsprogramm 22 bestimmt dasjenige Modell, das den geringsten Sensortemperaturfehler und damit die beste Temperaturabschätzung ermöglicht.The
Danach bestimmt die Steuereinheit 16 die korrekte Zeile abhängig von dem zeitlichen Verlauf der Sensortemperatur-Isolinien. Sind sowohl die korrekte Zeile als auch die korrekte Spalte der Modellmatrix bekannt, kann der Wert des thermischen Parameters Tpot leicht ermittelt werden.Thereafter, the
In den
In einem alternativen Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist das Kalibrierungsprogramm 22 teilautomatisiert und bedarf eines Benutzereingriffs. Das Induktionskochfeld ist mit einem in
In weiteren alternativen Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung kann das Temperatursensorelement 30 kontaktlos von der Steuereinheit 16 ausgelesen werden, beispielsweise wenn das Temperatursensorelement 30 einen RFID-Chip umfasst.In further alternative embodiments of the invention, the
Die Steuereinheit 16 implementiert ein Verfahren zum Betreiben eines Induktionskochfelds mit einem Induktionsheizelement 10 und einem Temperatursensor 12 zum Bestimmen der Sensortemperatur 14. Ein Kochgeschirrelement 18 wird mittels wenigstens einer elektrischen Kenngröße L, R des Kochgeschirrelements 18 identifiziert, und eine Kochgeschirrtemperatur 20 des Kochgeschirrelements 18 wird im Normalbetrieb abhängig von wenigstens der Sensortemperatur 14 und einem für das Kochgeschirrelement 18 spezifischen thermischen Parameter Tpot, TGlass bestimmt. In einem teilautomatisierten Kalibrierungsprogramm 22 wird der thermische Parameter Tpot, TGlass, sofern dieser nicht bereits bekannt ist, bestimmt und den elektrischen Kenngrößen L, R des Kochgeschirrelements 18 zugeordnet.The
Wenn ein bereits kalibrierter Topf bzw. ein bereits kalibriertes Kochgeschirrelement auf das Induktionskochfeld aufgestellt wird, kann der Topf durch eine schnelle Bestimmung der elektrischen Parameter L, R einfach erkannt werden und die thermischen Parameter Tpot, TGlass können aus der Speichereinheit 24 ausgelesen werden, so dass eine kurze Aufheizzeit erreicht werden kann. Das Kalibrierungsschema ermöglicht gute Kochergebnisse, die in ihrer Genauigkeit denjenigen einer Systempfanne entsprechen. Ein erfindungsgemäßes Kochfeld ist kostengünstig realisierbar und weitestgehend unabhängig von dem verwendeten Kochgeschirrelement einsetzbar. Oberhalb der Abdeckplatte 32 angeordnete Temperatursensoren können vermieden werden.When an already calibrated pot or cooking element is already set up on the induction hob, the pot can be easily detected by a quick determination of the electrical parameters L, R and the thermal parameters Tpot, TGlass can be read from the
