Domestic food oven and method for heating food in a domestic food oven

摘要

The invention provides a power-saving Domestic food oven (2000) and method (3000) for heating food in a domestic food oven that heats up the oven at 100% capacity under thermostatic control and later adopts a power control that corresponds to a load inside of the oven. The load may be determined by means of a scale and used to determine the control power value for the power control unit (1200) or a temperature-over-time behavior in the form of a linear slope may be determined that will be compared to the behavior of an empty oven in order to determine a load inside the oven and on the basis of the load inquire a table of results of previous experiments to determine a corresponding power level. Also mathematical functions describing the non-linear behavior of the oven (2000) in the presence of food may be used in order to determine the proper power.
