Abstract :
In some applications, traveling wave induction heating (TWIH) could make the heating distribution more profitable in comparison with transverse flux induction heating (TFIH). In this paper a simplified 3D FEM code is presented for the study of the induction eddy current distribution both in TWIH and TFIH. Results show that there are different eddy current densities in the metal strip when the circle loop lies in the internal or external of the projector.
