Abstract
This project reviews the Design of the Smart Electric Grate along with a resistive coil and with selftimer controlling operation which works on the “Law of Energy Conservation & the Joule’s law”. Nowadays, as we have seen that the Conventional Resistance Grate has some problems like poor efficiency, high power consumption problem and also no temperature controlling, no automation technique or else. Also we have seen that the Induction Heater has been widely used for the domestic purpose like cooking and for some other heating purposes. But due to its high costing, people sometimes hesitate to purchase Induction Grate. By providing some more advanced facilities for the benefit of customer like providing it in low cost than other Grates (Induction) which are available in market. For this, we used a resistance coil (Nichrome coil) in place of induction coil. Also we had modified the grate by controlling the temperature with the help of Energy Regulator. Microcontroller provides the time for the operation of Grate and also it provides the obtained temperature of the resistive coil to be shown on the display.
