The cooking chamber is communicated with an outlet end of the steam generator 1 for placing and cooking food inside. In the working process, after food is placed in the cooking box, the water tank supplies water to the interior of the steam generator 1, the water is heated to a steam state by the first heater 10 in the first heat exchange pipe 20, then the steam is heated to superheated steam in the steam superheater 40, and finally the superheated steam is filled in the space in the cooking box to wrap and heat the food in the cooking box, so that the food is rapidly heated, and the cooking of the food is completed.
Example eight:
in one embodiment of the invention:
fig. 1 is an exploded view of a steam generator 1, which includes a first heat exchanging pipe 20 made of stainless steel, a heat conducting member made of cast aluminum, a first heater 10, and a steam superheater 40.
In fig. 1, the first heat exchanging pipe 20 is located in the heat conducting body 30 after the position of the first heat exchanging pipe 20 is fixed relative to the first heater 10, and the first heat exchanging pipe 20 is connected with the steam superheater 40 through a water pipe. The heat of the first heater 10 is conducted to the first heat exchange tube 20 through the heat conductor 30, water enters from one end of the first heat exchange tube 20, and after three stages of supercooling, saturation boiling and micro-superheating, finally generated superheated steam flows out from the other end of the first heat exchange tube 20 and enters the steam superheater 40 to generate high-temperature superheated steam.
Wherein first heat exchange tube 20 adopts both ends spiral winding, has solved because of the pipe bending process restriction, and bend radius can not too little problem, and both ends spiral winding method can effectual utilization space, improves steam generator 1 unit volume's heat transfer area to can improve steam generator 1's volume power density.
The supercooling section of the first heat exchange tube 20 is much less than the heat absorbed by the boiling section, the supercooling section and the boiling section of the conventional steam generator 1 are respectively arranged at two ends of the heat conductor 30, and the heat productivity of each part of the heat conductor 30 is not greatly different, so that the heat absorption capacity at the two ends is greatly different, and the heat distribution on the heat conductor 30 is easily uneven, thereby the stability of the steam generator 1 is poor.
In the process of the steam from supercooling to saturated boiling to superheating, the heat absorbed by the boiling section of the first heat exchange tube 20 is the largest, and the heat absorbed by the superheating section is the smallest, and if the supercooling, the saturation and the superheating are in the same heating module, the pressure and the temperature of the steam generator 1 are easily pulsated due to the nonuniform heat, so that the steam cannot be stably generated.
Fig. 2 and 3 are a schematic structural view and a sectional view of the steam superheater 40, and the steam superheater 40 includes a heating wire 444, an insulator 446, a bushing 442, and a second heat exchange pipe 42.
The heating wire 444 is positioned between the second heat exchanging pipe 42 and the sleeve, an insulator 446 is filled between the second heat exchanging pipe 42 and the sleeve, and the heat of the heating wire 444 is conducted to the second heat exchanging pipe 42 through the insulator 446 to heat the steam, thereby superheating the steam. Compared with the traditional heater, the superheater has the advantages of small volume and high heating efficiency, and meanwhile, has the high temperature resistance which the thick film heater does not have.
Example nine:
according to an embodiment of the ninth aspect of the present invention, the cooking apparatus is a steam box which rapidly heats the food by high temperature steam emitted from the steam generator 1.
In the operation process, the steam box controls the power of the first heater 10 according to the type of food put in by the user or the control instruction input by the user, so as to generate steam meeting the temperature requirement. When food put into the steam cooker needs to be heated by high-temperature superheated steam, the steam box controls the steam superheater 40 on the steam generator 1 to work and cooperates with the first heater 10 to obtain the high-temperature superheated steam, so that the high-temperature cooking of the food is ensured, and the quality of the food is improved.
