전자렌지용 성능측정장치 및 그 제어방법Microwave performance measuring device and control method

본 발명은 전자렌지용 성능측정장치 및 그 제어방법에 관한 것으로서, 특히, 전자렌지에 의해 조리된 조리물 내부의 복수지점의 온도를 감지한 후, 이에 기초하여 전자렌지의 성능을 평가함으로써, 전자렌지성능을 보다 객관적으로 측정할 수 있도록 한 전자렌지용 성능측정장치 및 그 제어방법에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a performance measuring apparatus for a microwave oven and a control method thereof, and in particular, by sensing the temperature of a plurality of points inside a cooked food by a microwave oven, and then evaluating the performance of the microwave oven on the basis of The present invention relates to a performance measuring apparatus for a microwave oven and a control method thereof, which enable the objective of measuring the range performance.

전자렌지는 조리물이 수용되는 캐비티내에 고주파를 내보내어 음식물에 흡수되도록 하여 음식물을 조리하는 조리기구이다. 그런데, 그 가열방식의 특성으로 인해 고주파가 음식물의 각부위에 균일하게 도달되기 어렵고, 또한 고주파흡수율이 음식물의 재료나 수분함유량 등에 따라 부위별로 달라지므로 음식물 전체가 균일하게 가열되지 못하는 경우가 생길 수 있다. 따라서, 전자렌지는, 균일한 조리를 위하여, 마그네트론에서 나온 고주파를 분산시키는 스터러(stirrer)방식, 혹은 음식물을 올려놓은 테이블을 회전시키는 턴테이블방식 등을 채용하고 있으며, 전자렌지의 성능측정실험 또한 음식물이 균일하게 가열되며, 냉동물의 각부위가 균일하게 해동될 수 있는지 여부에 중점을 두고 행해지고 있다.Microwave ovens are cooking utensils for cooking food by sending high frequency in the cavity in which the food is accommodated to be absorbed by the food. However, due to the characteristics of the heating method, it is difficult for the high frequency to reach the parts of the food uniformly, and the high frequency absorption rate varies depending on the parts of the food and the water content, so that the whole food may not be heated evenly. . Therefore, the microwave oven adopts a stirrer method for dispersing high frequency from the magnetron or a turntable method for rotating a table on which food is placed for uniform cooking. The food is heated evenly, and the focus is on whether each part of the frozen product can be thawed uniformly.

그런데, 종래에는, 상술한 바와 같이 음식물의 균일가열여부가 전자렌지성능평가의 중요한 척도가 됨에도 불구하고, 그 성능측정실험에 있어, 전자렌지에 의해 조리된 조리물을 먹어보고 만져보거나 하나의 온도프루브만을 사용하여 임의로 조리물의 온도를 측정해보는 등 사실상 관능적인 평가방법에 의존해 왔으며 객관적이고 종합적인 평가장치나 방법이 마련되지 못하였다.By the way, in the past, even if the uniform heating of the food as described above is an important measure of the microwave performance evaluation, in the performance measurement experiment, eat and touch the food cooked by the microwave or a temperature Indeed, they have relied on sensory evaluation methods, such as measuring the temperature of foods using only probes, and objective and comprehensive evaluation devices and methods have not been provided.

따라서 본 발명의 목적은, 전자렌지에 의해 조리된 조리물 내부의 복수지점의 온도를 감지한 후, 이에 기초하여 전자렌지의 성능을 평가함으로써, 전자렌지성능을 보다 객관적으로 측정할 수 있도록 한 전자렌지용 성능측정장치 및 그 제어방법을 제공하는 것이다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to detect the temperature of a plurality of points inside a cooked food by a microwave oven, and then evaluate the performance of the microwave oven based on this, so that the microwave performance can be more objectively measured. It is to provide a performance measuring apparatus for a stove and a control method thereof.
