  • Abstract
    A generator is presented for induction heating applications whose heating inductor is compensated by a series LC circuit. The inverter works in a continuous manner and the working frequency reaches 250 kHz, providing power of up to 12 kW. Power regulation is performed by frequency variation and the equipment efficiency is greater than 93%
