Regular stovetops heat pots and pans through contact. Flames or electrical heating elements of regular stovetops generate heat, and that heat is transferred through contact from the burner to the base of the pot in a process known as â thermal conduction .â. Induction cooktops, on the other hand, do not generate heat. Induction burners have a coiled wire just below the ceramic surface, which generates an oscillating magnetic field. The key to induction cooktops is that the pots and pans you use must be made from a magnetic material to work with this system. The induction cooktop will induce the electrons in a magnetic material to move, creating an electric current in that magnetic material. That current generates heat in the pot.
