A novel circuit topology of modified switched boost hybrid resonant inverter fitted induction heating equipment

Abstract

Abstract:A novel circuit topology of modified switched boost high frequency hybrid resonant inverter fitted induction heating equipment is presented in this paper for efficient induction heating. Recently, induction heating technique is becoming very popular for both domestic and industrial purposes because of its high energy efficiency and controllability. Generally in induction heating, a high frequency alternating magnetic field is required to induce the eddy currents in the work piece. High frequency resonant inverters are incorporated in induction heating equipment which produce a high frequency alternating magnetic field surrounding the coil. Previously this high frequency alternating magnetic field was produced by voltage source inverters. But VSIs have several demerits. So, in this paper, a new scheme of modified switched boost high frequency hybrid resonant inverter fitted induction heating equipment has been depicted which enhances the energy efficiency and controllability and the same is validated by PSIM.

Design of Series Resonant Half-Bridge Inverter and Hybrid Control Technique for Domestic Induction Heating System Using a Typhoon Hardware-in-Loop

“…Developments in key technologies such as power electronic devices and topologies, digital control, and magnetic components have facilitated the development of high efficiency and performance that exceed traditional heating technologies. Because of its good heating capabilities and good responsiveness to load power changes, as well as its safe and pollutionfree power conversion, high-frequency induction heating (IH) has been extensively used in various domestic, industrial and medical applications (Vishnuram et al, 2020;A. Bhattacharya et al, 2016;Kumaraswamy et al, 2021).…”
