How does pressure IH technology change the way traditional rice cookers work?

2025,04,08
Pressure IH technology fundamentally transforms traditional rice cooker operation through three-dimensional innovation in heating dynamics, temperature/pressure control, and material engineering:
 
1.Heating Mechanism Revolution 
Traditional rice cookers rely on bottom-mounted heating plates with thermal conduction (heating plate → pot → rice). Pressure IH replaces this with multi-layer electromagnetic coils wrapping around the inner pot, generating eddy currents for direct metal heating. This eliminates 30-40% heat loss . Advanced models like Midea's Chiyan series add top-mounted IH coils (126°C) and side heating bands for 360° wraparound thermal penetration .
 
2. Smart Pressure-Temperature Synergy  
   Integrated microprocessors dynamically adjust pressure (0.3-1.8 atm) and temperature (up to 105°C). For example:  
   - Pre-soak phase: 0.5 atm maintains 40°C for optimal water absorption  
   - Boiling phase: 1.2 atm accelerates starch gelatinization via "three-stage pressure pulses" mimicking wood-fire intensity     - Simmering phase: Instant pressure drop triggers Maillard reaction for aroma enhancement   
 
3. Material Breakthroughs 
   - Inner Pots: Titanium alloy pots with 68 honeycomb nodes (Midea) or diamond-coated copper bases (Toshiba) enable rapid heat diffusion   
   - Sealing Systems: Nine-curve steam valves maintain 100Pa micro-pressure during simmering, preventing nutrient loss

| Aspect                         | Traditional Cookers          | Pressure IH Cookers                      |  
|-------------------------|-----------------------------|--------------------------------------|  
| Heating Efficiency       | 60-70%                             | 90-95%                                          |  
| Rice Expansion Rate   | 120-140%                          | 162% (Midea data)                        |  
| Flavor Compounds     | Low (single boiling)           | 389% aroma increase via Maillard|  
| Energy Use                 | 0.12kWh/meal                   | 0.08kWh/meal (1.8atm models)     |
