Abstract :
A method is given for the analysis of a multilayer cylindrical induction heating system. The excitation is circumferential and can be three phase or single-phase. The iterative form of solution allows for linear and nonlinear charges. Accuracy of the method is verified with measurements of practical induction heating system together with comparison to numerical and analytical methods.
