Abstract

High frequency resonant converters are used widely for induction heati ng. This paper presents a resonant inverter to achieve the desired high frequency with reduced swit ching losses and simulating the power electronic converter circuit using MATLAB/SIMULINK for inducti on heating equipment. The circuit designed has the load as induction coil and high frequency electrici ty is required to heat the work piece placed within the induction coil. The output power of the load coil is v aried by changing the frequency of the inverter. The circuit uses the Power MOSFET instead of t he IGBT.The series-resonant inverter is implemented to provide Zero Current Switching (ZCS) for all the s witches at turn off conditions and Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) at diode turn on. The main features of the proposed inverter are simple PWM control strategy and high efficiency. The operation mode of t he inverter will be evaluated corresponding to the duty cycle of the switch.
