Abstract
An induction heating device capable of preventing a fuse breaking phenomenon that occurs when a user preheats an empty vessel by determining whether or not a load is present in the vessel, and a method for controlling an induction heating device. In order to prevent a rapid rise in temperature of a vessel occurring in process during which a user preheats an empty vessel using an induction heating device and a fuse breaking phenomenon resulting therefrom, a controller of the induction heating device may determine whether or not a vessel placed on a working coil is an empty vessel in a vessel heating process, that is, whether or not a load is present in the vessel.
