Abstract

Stability, performance and reliability together they define features of a product. Optimization is possible when right topology is used. Series resonant and parallel resonant topologies are traditionally being used for control of induction heating plant. It is necessary to zero down on topology for optimal performance in induction heating for wide range (power and frequency) applications. This paper discusses on basic guidelines for selection of topology that generate better confidence level suitable for a particular application boundary.
