ANN based Embedded Controlled AC-AC Resonant Converter for Induction Heating

D. Kirubakaran, S. Rama Reddy

Abstract


An embedded controlled single-switch parallel resonant converter is introduced for induction heating applications. The circuit comprises of an input LC-filter, a bridge rectifier and a controlled power switch. The switch operates in the soft commutation mode and serves as a high frequency generator. This scheme overcomes the shortcomings of the previous schemes i.e. the presence of the DC component in the load current. The steady-state analysis of the converter is given. The theoretical analysis and the computer simulation satisfy the experimental results.
