METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE GENERATION OF STEAM, IN PARTICULAR FOR A COOKING DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the generation of steam, in particular for a cooking device, whereby a fluid within a steam generator container is brought to the boil, by the heating of at least one heatable wall surface (12) of the steam generator container. Said fluid is set in rotation by the heating and thus pressed against the heatable wall surface (12), due to centrifugal forces arising from the rotation. The steam generated as a result of the evaporation of at least a part of the fluid escapes from the steam generator container through a steam outlet and droplets of fluid entrained in the steam are separated out by at least one first rotor (8), rotatably mounted in the steam generator container, whereby the fluid is set in rotation by said rotor. The invention further relates to a device using the above method.
