  • Abstract
    Presents the design of a clamped series inverter for induction heating. Possible faults in the inverter system are investigated, and it is shown how the inverter system can be designed to be self-protecting against these faults. A design criterion to select the inverter input filter is given. The requirements of the logic circuit are discussed, and a control philosophy is presented to meet the requirements. A design procedure is illustrated to select the system components for a 100 kW static power supply for induction heating applications.
