GAS COOKTOP APPLIANCE

A gas cooktop appliance (10) includes a burner (12A, 12B, 12C, 12D), a gas supply circuit (14) in fluid communication with the burner (12A, 12B, 12C, 12D), and a valve (16A, 16B, 16C, 16D) for controlling an amount of gas supplied to the burner from the gas supply circuit (14). An electrode (18A, 18...

More Information
Summary:A gas cooktop appliance (10) includes a burner (12A, 12B, 12C, 12D), a gas supply circuit (14) in fluid communication with the burner (12A, 12B, 12C, 12D), and a valve (16A, 16B, 16C, 16D) for controlling an amount of gas supplied to the burner from the gas supply circuit (14). An electrode (18A, 18B, 18C, 18D) is configured to provide an ignition spark (20) and to obtain an ionization current (22). A control system (100) is operably coupled with the valve (16A, 16B, 16C, 16D) and is configured to compare the ionization current (22) to a setting of the valve and modify the amount of gas supplied to the burner when the difference between the ionization current (22) and the setting of the valve is outside a predetermined threshold.
