Principle of High-frequency Induction Heater Unit
Induction heater units incorporate high frequency generators for non-contact heating of metal using electromagnetic induction.
When AC is applied to a coil surrounding the work (metal), a magnetic field is generated by the current flowing in the coil, and induced loss (hysteresis loss) is generated causing a heat.
At the same time, in the magnetic field which alternates with the AC, a spiral current (eddy current) is generated by the electromagnetic induction. This eddy current generates Joule heating, and a heat loss of the electromagnetic energy (eddy-current loss) will be caused.
High frequency induction heating equipment performs heating by utilizing the two heating principle, namely hysteresis loss and eddy-current loss.
