Abstract

A method for controlling an inductive heating system of a cooking hob provided with an induction coil is disclosed. The method controls it in connection with a predetermined working condition, comprises assessing the value of power absorbed by the system, measuring a temperature indicative of the thermal status of at least one element of the heating system, feeding the assessed power value to a computing model capable of providing an estimated value of temperature, comparing the measured temperature with the estimated temperature and tuning the computing model on the basis of such comparison.
