Abstract :
This paper presents a three-dimensional modeling of induction heating of conductive composite materials using the shell elements. These elements are generalized by taking into account the anisotropic behavior of the load. Magnetic fields and temperatures on the composite load are then calculated and compared with experimental measurements.
