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.

연구목적: 최근 전기레인지의 사용증가와 더불어 화재도 증가하고 있다. 전기레인지 중 대표적인 인덕션과 하이라이트 방식에 대해 구조 및 작동방법을 알아보고 화재위험성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 연구방법: 두 방식에 대하여 연소실험, 전열실험, 발화실험 등을 실시하였다. 연구결과: 하이라이트 전기레인지는 키친타월이 2분 후 연소되었고, 조리를 마친 후 잔열이 식는데 약 25분이 소요되며, 니크롬선의 붉은 기운이 3~4분 만에 사라지고 불꽃이 보이지 않았다. 결론: 실험 결과 하이라이트 방식은 화상 및 화재 위험성이 존재하며, 특히 상판에 균열이 있을 경우 화재 및 폭발의 위험성이 있음을 알 수 있었다.
