Abstract
An automatic dishwasher comprises a wash tub having an access opening to define an open-faced wash chamber for holding utensils to be washed, a door movable relative to the wash tub for selectively closing the open-faced wash chamber, a utensil holder located within the wash chamber, and an induction heater for drying utensils within the wash chamber. The induction heater generates a useful magnetic field that projects into the utensil holder.
