Abstract

Electromagnetic induction refers to the phenomenon by which electric current is generated in a closed circuit by the fluctuation of current in another circuit placed next to it. Induction heating is that when AC current flowing through a primarily circuit induces a current in the load (the secondary circuit) located near it and heating the load. Heat loss occurring in the process of electromagnetic induction can be turned into productive heat energy in an electric heating system by applying electromagnetic induction principle. The intent of this paper is to present Induction Heating principles and the details of half-bridge power inverter (i.e. Series Resonant Inverter) via a comprehensive analysis with operation equations of the circuits and its various operating modes and finally do simulation of power inverter using MATLAB and verify effect of resonance phenomenon.
