- the other component is the Lorenz force between the eddy current J passing on the bottom of thecooking pot and the exciting current passing through the excitation windings 81-84.

- the frequency changed the electromagnetic force F is in a form which superimposes the static force with the alternating electromagnetic force and has a frequency of twice the current frequency.
- the vibration acceleration produced thereby is higher than and the noise is higher than 70 horn and accordingly, such an arrangement could not be practically utilized.
- the alternating electromagnetic force is theoretically zero, and only a constant static electromagnetic force is. applied to the cooking pot so that no vibration or no noise will be cause. In practical application, an induction heating cooking apparatus having negligible vibration and noise can be obtained.
- the exciting current I A is directly fed from the power source to the excitation windings 81 and 83 of one excitation circuit 80A by turningon the switch 22.
- the electric current I 1, sin (wt 1r/2), whose phase is shifted 90 in advance by condenser C is supplied to the excitation windings 82 and 84 of the other excitation circuit 808. Since the exciting current of the excitation circuits 80A and 80B have a phase difference of about 90, the magnetic fluxes D and 1 have a phase difference of about 90 between each other.
- FIG. 14 illustrates the electromagnetic force in. the foregoing case.
- the alternating electromagnetic force applied to the cooking pot by the alternating magnetic flux has a frequency of twice the magnetic flux frequency. Accordingly, a phase difference of about 180 exists between the electromagnetic forces F and F applied to the cooking pot 10 by the excitation circuits 80A and 80B. Since the magnetic resistances of the magnetic circuits A and B are the same, the absolute values of the magnetic fluxes 1 and D, are the same.
- the total force applied to the cooking pot 10 will now be considered.
- the alternating electromagnetic force based on the two excitation circuits 80A and 80B are cancelled, so that only the static force F (which is not changed in time) remains, as shown in FIG. 14.

From the results of FIG. 16, it is clearly understood that the use of the copper-iron cooking pot is quite effective, because of the increase in the calorific value over the other two cases.
- FIGS. 15 and 16 show characteristic data of specific structures, and similar characteristic data can be obtained when other practical structures are employed.
- the electromagnetic force will be decreased.
- the electromagnetic force applied to the cooking pot becomes smaller than the gravitational force on the cooking pot in the range of aluminum plate thickness of 2.1-2.7 mm; the electromagnetic force is zero at a plate thickness of 2.4 mm.
- Similar phenomenon occur when other conductive materials are used, and can be applied, for example, for a cooking pot prepared by bonding a ferromagnetic plate to non-magnetic plate having a higher conductive coefficient than that of the ferromagnetic plate.
- the magnetic field formed by the exciter 10 causes a rotating field so that a rotating force will be applied to the cooking pot 10.
- rotation of the cooking pot can be prevented by the following methods.
- One of such methods is to retain a suitable attractive force without decreasing the static magnetic force F applied to the cooking pot 10, whereby the rotation of the cooking pot 10 will be prevented by the remaining attractive force. Moreover, the cooking pot 10 will not slip when the range table becomes inclined.
- Another method is to prevent the rotation of the cooking pot 10 by means of a mechanical structure.
- a mechanical structure For example, as shown in the embodiments in FIGS. 17 to 19, three projections 13 are formed at the bottom of the cooking pot and corresponding three concave receptacles 31 are formed on the cover plate 30 of the range table 20 in a fitting relationship to each other.

- the alternating electromagnetic force applied to the cooking pot 10 will be approximately zero. This follows from a reconsideration of FIG. 13 which shows the change in time of the electromagnetic force applied to the cooking pot 10 by the .three'magnetic circuits A, B and C.
- the electromagnetic forceof the three magnetic circuits each have a phase'shift of 120. When they are combined, the alternating electromagnetic forces are cancelled so as to be zero, and only the static electromagnetic force remains.
