Provided is a system, in which a display is mounted to a steam generating device to monitor a driving situation or an erroneous operation situation of the steam generating device through the display. It is possible to monitor an operation situation of a steam generating device through a simple screen configuration in real time at a glance, and enable a user to diversely analyze reasons by various factors when an abnormal operation is generated and cope with the abnormal operation.

A steam generator and a cooking apparatus including a steam generator are provided. The steam generator may include a heater, an inflow tube, a steam generation tube, and a discharge tube and an adaptor unit connected to the steam generator may be provided. The inflow tube and the discharge tube and the discharge tube may be connected at a predetermined angle to the adaptor unit. Thus, the steam generation tube connecting the inflow tube to the discharge tube may also be inclined.

In order to make it possible to accurately detect the liquid level of a liquid material in a container, a vaporization device is adapted to include: a container 10 that contains a liquid material X; a heater 30 that heats the liquid material X in the container 10; and a liquid level sensor 20 that detects the liquid level of the liquid material in the container 10, in which when viewing the inside of the container 10 from above, a vaporization region S1 in which the liquid material X is vaporized, and a liquid level stable region S2 different from the vaporization region S1 are configured to be formed, and the liquid level sensor 20 detects the liquid level of the liquid material X in the liquid level stable region S2.

A method of estimating fluid in a steam generation system includes periodically determining steam flow rates and drainage flow rates to accurately estimate fluid levels. The method includes determining a first steam flow rate of a steam generator. Before a present steam cycle, determine a starting quantity of liquid in one or more liquid reservoirs. During a present steam cycle, determine a quantity of liquid remaining in the one or more liquid reservoirs by determining a time the steam generator injected steam and multiplying the time by the first steam flow rate. Based on the first steam flow rate, determine a time remaining before the quantity of liquid remaining in the one or more liquid reservoirs is below a threshold and the one or more liquid reservoirs needs to be refilled. With the drain flow rate, the steam generation system can be emptied with minimized dry cycle duration.
