All of these advantages are due to its heating process, where the pot is directly heated by the induced currents generated with a varying magnetic field. As a result, the glass where the pot is supported is not directly heated and, consequently, efficiency and heating times are improved. IH systems are based on dc-link inverters to generate the required alternating current to feed the inductor. Usually, resonant converters are used to achieve higher efficiencies and power densities. As a consequence, in these converters, the efficiency is also reduced in the low-medium output power range. This project presents the use of the half-bridge inverter in two operating modes to achieve higher efficiency in a wide output power range.Read More
