“…To implement the IH for different appliances, a high-frequency (HF) alternating electromotive force (e.m.f.) is required that typically lies between 20 KHz to 100 KHz depending on the type of applications such as brazing, melting processes and for domestic cooking [1][2][3][4]. In the last few decades, various new topologies of HF resonant inverter have been proposed to generate H.F alternating e.m.f.…”

Prevalent converters for induction heating (IH) applications employ two-stage conversion for generating high-frequency magnetic field, namely, AC to DC and then DC to high-frequency AC (HFAC). This research embarks upon a direct conversion of utility AC to high frequency AC with the design of a single-phase matrix converter (SPMC) as a resonant converter using a modified switching technique for IH application. The efficacy of the proposed approach is validated through different attributes such as unity power factor, sinusoidal input current and low total harmonic distortion (THD). The developed prototype-embedded system has high pragmatic deployment potential owing to its cost effectiveness using Arduino mega 2560 and high voltage/current as well as low switching time IXRH40N120 insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT). Different results of the prototype-embedded system for IH application have been verified using Matlab Simulink environment to corroborate its efficacy.

“…When a gas stove is used, the cooking time is longer if a strong wind is blowing, so the window has to be closed during cooking even in hot summers. In contrast, an induction cooktop is convenient because, since there is no flame, it is not influenced by the wind [13,14]. Fourth, gas stoves can only be used when a gas pipe is installed; an induction cooktop has the advantage that it can be used wherever it is located [4].…”

“…Therefore, information is needed about the convenience and safety benefits of induction cooktops over gas stoves so that policymakers can more accurately predict the demand for electricity. There are some studies in the literature that evaluate the efficiency and safety features of induction cooktops and gas stoves [1][2][3][4][5]11,13,14]. However, to the best of the authors' knowledge, there has been little investigation into the convenience and safety benefits of domestic induction cooktops.…”

Are Korean Households Willing to Pay a Premium for Induction Cooktops over Gas Stoves?

Korean households generally prefer to use induction cooktops rather than gas stoves because of their greater convenience and safety features. This paper tries to investigate whether Korean households are willing to pay a premium for replacing their gas stoves, which are currently common in Korea, with induction cooktops, from the perspective of convenience and safety. To this end, a contingent valuation technique was applied to assess the additional willingness to pay (WTP) a premium for using an induction cooktop rather than a gas stove. A nationwide survey of 1000 households was carried out. The results indicate that the mean additional WTP for using an induction cooktop rather than a gas stove is KRW 207 (USD 0.19) per cubic meter of residential gas. This value can be interpreted as the convenience and safety benefits to the consumer of using an induction cooktop rather than a gas stove, or residential electricity rather than residential gas for cooking. It amounts to approximately 26.7% of the average 2015 price of residential gas, which was KRW 775 (USD 0.70) per cubic meter. If the gap between the price for residential electricity and the price for residential gas is less than the WTP value, households will increase their demand for residential electricity for cooking.

“…Hence in the cooking market, domestic induction heating is becoming a standard option due to its benefits such as higher efficiency, cleanness and the reduced heating times In order to implement this type of appliances, a converter of wide bandwidth (typically 20 to 100 kHz) and high power output ( up to 5 kW [1]- [2]) is required. The development of high frequency AC/AC converters for kitchen equipments is need of the hour [1]. A high frequency induction boiler, cooker and super heated steamer compared with the conventional gas cooking equipment are much more attractive for home and business uses.…”

Domestic induction heating (IH) is currently the choice in modern domestic application due to its advantages regarding fast heating time, efficiency and improved control. Induction heating applications require high frequency currents which are obtained using resonant converters. In this paper a novel DC-AC single phase inverter is proposed and simulated using MATLAB. When the switches are turned on and off, a conventional inverter generates switching loss because of the hard-switching. Thus the inverter loss is increased. Proposed system contains auxiliary circuit. The converter stage switches perform soft-switching because of the auxiliary circuit. Therefore all switches perform softswitching when the switches are turned on and off. Thus the proposed system reduces switching loss and voltage stress.
