Computer simulation of induction heating system with series inverter

Computer simulation of induction heating system with series inverter The paper presents the results of computer simulation of the process of induction heating with series transistor inverter. In the simulation of induction heating system the coupled harmonic electromagnetic and transient thermal fields were combined with the simulated real energy source. As a source, the transistor bridge inverter with series resonant circuit was applied. The source parameters (inductor voltage and frequency) depend on the load parameters obtained by numerical calculations of the coupled fields. As the examples, the induction heating before hardening of stationary cylindrical workpiece and of the moving flat workpiece were considered. The simulation results were compared with these obtained in the simulation at constant inductor voltage and frequency. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png COMPEL: The International Journal for Computation and Mathematics in Electrical and Electronic Engineering Emerald Publishing

Abstract

The paper presents the results of computer simulation of the process of induction heating with series transistor inverter. In the simulation of induction heating system the coupled harmonic electromagnetic and transient thermal fields were combined with the simulated real energy source. As a source, the transistor bridge inverter with series resonant circuit was applied. The source parameters (inductor voltage and frequency) depend on the load parameters obtained by numerical calculations of the coupled fields. As the examples, the induction heating before hardening of stationary cylindrical workpiece and of the moving flat workpiece were considered. The simulation results were compared with these obtained in the simulation at constant inductor voltage and frequency.
