%0 Journal Article %T Comparison of Simulation and Experimental Results of Class - D Inverter Fed Induction Heater %A A. Suresh %A S. Rama Reddy %J Research Journal of Applied Sciences, Engineering and Technology %D 2010 %I Maxwell Science Publication %X This research deals w ith simulation and experimentation of closed loop controlled class-D inverter fed induction heater system. This converter has reduced switching losses, stress and increased power density. The inverter system is designed and the simulation is done using Matlab. The results of simulation and experimentation are presented. The induction heater system uses embedded controller to generate driving pulses. The objective is to develop an induction heater system with minimum hardware. %K Class-D inverter %K closed loop control %K induction heating (IH) %K zero voltage switching %U http://www.maxwellsci.com/jp/abstract.php?jid=RJASET&no=73&abs=02
