  • Abstract
    In this paper, a comparison between several induction loads operating in a One Switch - Zero Voltage Switching (1SW-ZVS) resonant converter is presented. The aim is to determine the optimal load for induction cooking systems from the point of view of maximizing the performance of a given active device (Si IGBT or SiC JFET) in this resonant topology.
