Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrical performance testing, specifically to an energy efficiency testing device for electric stoves. Background Technology

[0002] Household induction cooktops utilize the principle of electromagnetic induction, causing eddy currents to be generated in the cookware (magnetic core) within an alternating magnetic field. This generates heat, converting electrical energy into heat. Since the cookware itself heats up, it reduces intermediate heat transfer steps, resulting in higher thermal efficiency than other cooktops. The energy efficiency standard is the most critical parameter for household induction cooktops.

[0003] In existing technologies, energy efficiency is measured using instruments and measuring tools such as power meters, platinum resistance thermometers, timers, and electronic scales. The thermal efficiency of the induction cooker is calculated by measuring the heat obtained from the water in a standard pot heated by the induction cooker, the heating power of the induction cooker, and the standby power with the highest power consumption. However, this testing method has the drawback that the container holding the water and the dissipated heat cannot be statistically measured, resulting in inaccurate measurement results. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an energy efficiency testing device for electric stoves, so as to improve the accuracy of energy efficiency testing for electric stoves.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] An energy efficiency testing device for electric stoves, comprising:

[0007] A standard pot made entirely of metal is placed on an electric stove. The standard pot is filled with a fixed amount of water at a constant temperature, and a sealing lid is fixedly connected to the top of the standard pot.

[0011] A constant temperature and constant flow gas generating system, wherein the constant temperature and constant flow gas generating system is connected to a heat insulation cover to inject a constant temperature gas flow into the heat insulation cover and then into a heat insulation storage tank.

[0012] Several temperature sensors are provided, with at least one temperature sensor inside the standard pot, at least one temperature sensor fixed on the outer periphery of the standard pot, and several temperature sensors fixedly connected inside the insulation cover.

[0013] Furthermore, the temperature sensor located inside the standard pot does not make contact with the inner wall of the standard pot or the bottom surface of the sealing lid.

[0014] Furthermore, the sealing cap is made of the same material as the standard pot, and at least one temperature sensor is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sealing cap.

[0015] Furthermore, a number of connecting rods are fixedly connected inside the standard pot. One end of each connecting rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the standard pot or the bottom surface of the sealing lid, and the temperature sensor is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod.

[0016] Furthermore, the constant temperature and constant flow gas generating system includes a gas source box, a connecting pipe, and a gas pump. The gas source box is connected to the inside of the heat insulation cover through the connecting pipe, and the gas pump is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe.

[0017] Furthermore, the constant temperature and constant flow gas generating system also includes a gas flow meter and a first gas check valve, wherein the gas flow meter and the first gas check valve are fixedly connected to the connecting pipe between the gas pump and the heat insulation cover.

[0018] Furthermore, a second gas check valve is fixedly connected to the insulation pipe between the insulation cover and the insulation gas storage box.

[0019] In addition to the above technologies, the following are also included:

[0020] Multiple communication modules are electrically connected to a temperature sensor and a flow meter respectively to collect data information from the multiple sensors and the flow meter.

[0021] A controller connected to a communication module to receive temperature and gas flow information transmitted by the communication module in order to calculate the energy efficiency of the tested electric stove.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this invention are:

[0023] This invention uses a heat preservation cover, a constant temperature gas storage box, and a sealed standard pot to statistically analyze the heat energy generated by the induction cooker. It can accurately measure the total heat generated by the induction cooker during operation, as well as separately count the energy used for heating and dissipation, thus obtaining more accurate measurement results and improving the accuracy of energy efficiency testing for electric cookers.
