Abstract

There is a strong market demand for extractors that are discretely integrated in the worktop. However, consumers have expressed concerns about whether downdrafts are able to effectively extract cooking vapours. These concerns are reasonable as a lid is to be used to direct the cooking vapours. Design goal - A design goal was set to design a new domino downdraft for ATAG and ASKO that is able to manipulate the air above the cook-top to extract the cooking vapours sufficiently when users cook with large pots. Design proposition - With Sync, the project took a turn that deviated from the expected outcome—namely a domino downdraft in between two domino cook-tops—with the integration of extraction into the cook-top and the cooking pots. Besides being the first downdraft that effectively extracts all cooking vapours from large pots, Sync does so with very low noise levels. Cooking vapours are extracted through the double wall of the pot many times more efficiently. Monitoring flow per pot, allows for automatic operation, and optimisation of the efficiency per pot or pan, with or without a lid.
