This paper presents a review of the research activities carried out at the Laboratory for Electroheat of Padova University (LEP) in the field of high efficiency through heating of aluminum workpieces. Induction heating obtained by rotating a billet in a DC magnetic field produced by superconductive coils was the first attempt to reach high electrical efficiency in mass heating of high conductive metals, like aluminum, copper and brass. More recently, the same concept has been applied by rotating rare earth permanent magnets around a metal billet kept in a fixed position. This technology appears much more promising because of lower cost of installation and a more robust mechanical design.

A powder metallurgy approach was applied for the synthesis of an [Formula: see text] Ti-2Al-3Fe alloy. Blends of the elemental Ti, Al and Fe powders were compacted and subsequently sintered. High-frequency induction heating (HFIH) instead of conventional high-vacuum furnace heating was used for the sintering, due to its high efficiency. The effect of temperature on the level of densification, residual porosity and mechanical properties was studied. Electron dispersive spectrum analysis was used to study the dissolution and homogenization of the alloying elements. The results showed that a short induction sintering (IS) cycle in the range of 10–15 min is sufficient to achieve significant powder consolidation, evident by the increase of the density and mechanical properties. The residual porosity diminishes with the increase of the sintering temperature. Full dissolution of the alloying powders is completed after sintering at temperatures above those of [Formula: see text]- to [Formula: see text]-phase transformation.

AbstractIt is very important to design electrical machineries with high efficiency from the point of view of saving energy. Therefore, topology optimization (TO) is occasionally used as a design method for improving the performance of electrical machinery under the reasonable constraints. Because TO can achieve a design with much higher degree of freedom in terms of structure, there is a possibility for deriving the novel structure which would be quite different from the conventional structure. In this paper, topology optimization using sequential linear programming using move limit based on adaptive relaxation is applied to two models. The magnetic shielding, in which there are many local minima, is firstly employed as firstly benchmarking for the performance evaluation among several mathematical programming methods. Secondly, induction heating model is defined in 2-D axisymmetric field. In this model, the magnetic energy stored in the magnetic body is maximized under the constraint on the volume of magnetic body. Furthermore, the influence of the location of the design domain on the solutions is investigated.

A closed-loop interleaved multistage switched-capacitor-voltage-multiplier (mc × nc-stage SCVM) dc–dc converter is proposed by combining a variable-conversion-ratio (VCR) and pulse-width-modulation (PWM) control for low-power step-up conversion and high-efficiency regulation. In this SCVM, the power part is composed of two mc-stage SC cells (front) and two nc-stage SC cells (rear) in cascade, and these cells are operated by two-phase nonoverlapping clocks for an interleaved operation with voltage gain of mc × nc at most. This paper presents the VCR control to change the running stage number m,n and topological path for a more flexible and suitable gain level m × n (1 × 1, 2 × 1, 2 × 2, 3 × 1, 3 × 2, 3 × 3,…, mc × nc) according to the desired output so as to improve power efficiency, especially for the lower output. Besides, PWM is adopted not only to enhance output regulation for different outputs, but also to reinforce output robustness to source/loading variation. Further, some theoretical analysis and design include: SCVM model, steady-state analysis, conversion ratio, power efficiency, output ripple, stability, capacitance selection, and control design. Finally, the closed-loop SCVM is simulated, and the hardware is implemented and tested. All the results are illustrated to show the efficacy of the proposed scheme.
