Gas stove works with natural gas. It connects to both an autonomous gas source and a central gas pipeline. When the gas reaches the burner, it is mixed with oxygen from the atmosphere and, as a result, the combustion process occurs through the holes of the burner. Next, this mixture is ignited, which burns until the moment of its termination.
Most older models are set on fire manually, while modern ones are powered by electric ignition. The essence of this model, connected to the network, is that when the handle turns on the electric ignition button, the electrical part ignites.
Each such model has four rings, which consist of a base, divider and cover. When gas is supplied to the lid of the reflector, it enters the holes of the divider, creating flames of flame. Hot plates come in different sizes to regulate the heating process.
IMPORTANT!
The burner of this model cools for about 30 minutes.
Advantages and disadvantages of a gas stove

The principle of operation of the induction cooker
This stove is an electric surface with a glass ceramic hob, in which inductors are integrated. The heating process occurs from the formation of current when exposed to a magnetic field with a high frequency of about 20-100 kHz. The heating itself is triggered by inductors made of copper, which heat the lower part of the cookware, but at the same time the burner itself remains cold.
IMPORTANT!
The hotplate of this model cools in less than 10 minutes.
Advantages and disadvantages of induction cooker
