Abstract The article discusses possible options for a low-temperature induction heating system (LTIHS) of flat metal products in a traveling electromagnetic field. The problem of calculating eddy currents, active and reactive powers induced in a heated flat object, as well as electromagnetic forces acting on the object moving it in a given direction, is posed and solved. A mathematical model has been developed that takes into account the dependence of the influence on the main parameters of the electromagnetic field of the following factors: geometric dimensions of the air gap between the poles of the magnetic circuit and the heated flat body; the longitudinal edge effect caused by the open circuit of the magnetic circuit of the inductor, as well as the transverse edge effect associated with the appearance of the longitudinal components of eddy currents in a heated flat object. The solution of particular problems of LTIHS in one- and two-dimensional formulation allows them to be simplified and to perform calculations for various design variants of induction heating devices with a traveling electromagnetic field, using a one-dimensional model that explicitly takes into account the features of electromagnetic processes in the systems under study.

Improving the efficiency of induction heating of parts in the air gap of the magnetic circuit is associated with the use of surface and edge effects. Through modeling in ANSYS Electromagnetics Suite 19.2 and experimental studies identified patterns of edge effect in the heated parts. To ensure the uniformity of induction heating of small parts and reduce the soldering time, the electrical switch of soldered parts is used, which with the help of device controller forms a secondary circuit with low electrical resistance and high density of eddy currents.

Eddy currents of electromagnetic field leads not only to the local heating of plate but also to the thermal-elasto-plastic deformation in the induction heating. It is necessary to have a simulation model to attract the possibility of induction heating equipment and to study the deformation behavior. The goal of present paper is to investigate the possibility of induction heating equipment for steel plate bending. The residual stress distribution of induction heating is investigated by an electromagnetic analysis in conjunction with thermal-mechanical analysis. A computational model based on FEA is used to study the electromagnetic field and thermalmechanical process. Comparison with the residual strain fields and deformation of both heating shows that the induction heating has good similarity with the gas heating.

Induction heating (IH) is a process of heating the electrically conducting materials especially ferromagnetic materials with the help of electromagnetic induction through generating heat in an object by eddy currents. A well-entrenched way of IH is to design a heating system pertaining to the usage of ferromagnetic materials such as stainless steel, iron, etc., which restricts the end user’s choice of using utensils made of ferromagnetic only. This research article proposes a new scheme of induction heating that is equally effective for heating ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic materials such as aluminium and copper. This is achieved by having a competent IH system that embodies a series resonant inverter and controller where a competent flexible load modulation (FLM) is deployed. FLM facilitates change in operating frequency in accordance with the type of material chosen for heating. The recent attempts by researchers on all metal IH have not addressed much on the variable shapes and sizes of the material, whereas this research attempts to address that issue as well. The proposed induction heating system is verified for a 2 kW system and is compatible with both industrial and domestic applications.

Introduction: the systems of thermal effects on thermo-dependent, viscous and highly viscous liquids under conditions of the Arctic and the Extreme North are considered. Low efficiency and danger of heating systems based on burned hydrocarbons, heated liquids and steam are shown. Electrothermal heating systems used to maintain thermo-dependent fluids in a fluid state are considered. The evaluation of the effectiveness of the application of the most common electrothermal system — heating cables (tapes). The most effective electrothermal system based on induction technologies has been determined. Materials and methods: considered methods of thermal exposure to maintain the fluid properties of thermo-dependent fluids at low extreme temperatures. Results: presents an induction heating system and options for its implementation in the Extreme North and the Arctic. Conclusions: induction heating system to minimize loss of product quality, improve the system performance under changing process conditions, eliminate fire product, to reduce the influence of the human factor.

In this work, the dimensions of a furnace for melting of ferrous alloys were determined. The furnace has an electromagnetic induction heating system. In addition, the parameters of electrical power supply such as frequency and power were calculated. A 5kg cast steel mass with a density of 7.81 kg / dm3 was proposed. This corresponds to a crucible volume of 0.641 dm3. The frequency was obtained from tables, which take into account the diameter of the crucible, and its value was 1 KHz. The energy consumption was determined with the heat required to bring the steel to the temperature of 1740 K, the energy losses through the walls, bottom and top of the crucible. This value was divided between the heating time (30 minutes) and resulted in a power of 4.5 KW. The development of the calculations shows that the induction heating is an efficient process and allows a fast melting of ferrous alloys.
