Method of estimating a humidity level in a steam cooking chamber of a steam cooking appliance, method or operating the steam cooking appliance and steam cooking appliance

摘要

The present application in particular is related to a method of estimating a humidity level in a steam cooking chamber (4) of a steam cooking appliance (1). The method comprises successively measuring static or quasi-static pressure values (P 1 ,...,P n ) prevailing within the steam cooking chamber (4); successively calculating from the pressure values (P 1 ,...,P n ); and setting and using the humidity index value (EH 1 ,...,EH n ) as an actual measure for the humidity level.
