Behaviour of a High Frequency Parallel Quasi Resonant Inverter Fitted Induction Heater with Different Switching Frequencies

<p>This paper investigates the behavior of a high frequency parallel quasiresonant<br />inverter fitted domestic induction heater with different switching frequencies. The power semiconductor switch Insulated Gate Bipolar Junction Transistor (IGBT) is incorporated in this high frequency inverter that can operate under ZVS and ZCS conditions during the switching operations at certain switching frequency to reduce switching losses. The proposed induction heating system responds to three different switching frequencies with providing different results. An Insulated Gate Bipolar Junction Transistor (IGBT) provides better efficiency and faster switching operations. After the complete study of the proposed induction heating system at the selected switching frequencies, the results are compared and it is decided that most reliable, efficient and effective operations from the proposed induction heater can be obtained if the switching frequency is selected slightly above the resonant frequency of the tank circuit of the resonant inverter. The proposed scheme is analyzed using Power System<br />Simulator (PSIM) environment.</p>

Induction Heating System

This paper propounds the incorporation of a three-level inverter based Shunt Active Filter (SAF) in the Induction Heating (IH) system to eradicate the problems due to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) & Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). The IH system generates a considerable amount of high-frequency harmonics because of myriad causes, the predominant one being the high-frequency switching in the resonant inverter. The former has an immanent propensity to flow towards the supply side and results in the enfeeblement of power quality. Moreover, in the present work, attention has been paid off to develop a proper control strategy of a three level inverter based SAF for EMI and RFI suppression. A new modeling approach of three-level inverter based SAF is proposed and the efficacy and viability of the proposed controllers for SAF in the IH system are validated via simulations in PSIM. A comparative analysis of THD in the input current waveform has been done to advocate the desideratum of SAF as an imperative part of the IH system. Results obtained by simulations show that the proposed approach is more effective than the reviewed approaches on compensating the harmonic currents and thus, the filtering action of SAF is able to achieve the THD of input current within the limit specified by the IEEE-519 standard.

Abstract This paper presents a mathematical model of a power controller for a high-frequency induction heating system based on a modified half-bridge series resonant inverter. The output real power is precise over the heating coil, and this real power is processed as a feedback signal that contends a closed-loop topology with a proportional-integral-derivative controller. This technique enables both control of the closed-loop power and determination of the stability of the high-frequency inverter. Unlike the topologies of existing power controllers, the proposed topology enables direct control of the real power of the high-frequency inverter.

Induction Heating System

This paper presents the performance analysis of high frequency parallel quasi-resonant converter for domestic induction heating application as well as industrial application. The power semiconductor switch like IGBT is incorporated in this high frequency converter. Parallel Quasi-resonant topology is selected to provide ZVS and ZCS operation during switching conditions to reduce switching losses. Here, IGBT provides better efficiency and faster switching technique. In the proposed topology, a diode is connected across the IGBT ensuring the ZVS operation during turn-ON that enhances the possibility of less turn-ON loss. On the other hand, the switching frequency nearly equal to the resonant frequency ensures the ZCS operation of the IGBT during turn-OFF, which also ensures a reduction of turn-OFF loss. As a result, the performance of the induction heating system gets improved. The proposed scheme is analyzed using PSIM software environment.
