Abstract
Purpose: Recently, in addition to increase in the use of electric ranges, fires have also been increasing. Method: To find out the fire risk of induction and highlights range, looked at the structure and operation methods. Combustion tests, heat transfer tests, and ignition tests were performed on both types. Results: The highlight electric range burned the towel two minutes later, takes about 25 minutes for the residual heat to cool down after cooking, and the energy of the red color disappeared in three to four minutes and no sparks were seen. Conclusion: Experiments have shown that burn and fire hazards exist, especially if there is cracks in the top, there is a risk of fire and explosion.
