Abstract
Induction heating of flat metal products can be carried out using the magnetic transverse flux or the longitudinal flux. Transverse flux induction heating offers advantages particularly in the case of thin strip material. A program package is described, which enables the numerical simulation of the current and temperature distributions in transverse flux induction heating arrangements, to investigate the physical correlations. The calculation methods for the current distribution are based on the boundary element method (BEM) and those for the temperature distribution on the finite difference method (FDM). Taking into account the installation-specific symmetries, the calculations can be carried out on generally available computers like PC or workstations. The numerical modelling and the evaluation of the results are presented using an industrial pilot plant as an example. A transverse flux laboratory model is used for the experimental verification of the electromagnetic (EM) calculation method. The temperature distribution in the strip during the passage through the industrial pilot plant is recorded with the aid of an infrared measuring system and compared with the calculation results.
