Abstract


This paper analyses the necessity of PLL (Phase Locked Loop-controlled) circuit for series resonant inverter in high frequency induction heating power supply. We were interested in modeling and simulation of an inverter with SIT (Static Induction Transistor) functioning at resonance and intended for the induction heating of high frequency ferromagnetic cylindrical piece. During the heating of the ferromagnetic piece, the resistive and inductive equivalent parameters of the inductor-load varied with the temperature. Thus it became necessary to vary the frequency of operation of the inverter to maintain the resonance. An order by PLL was employed for the continuation of the frequency resonance. The model simulation of the resonant inverter series model was established in MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results indicate that this circuit can keep the power-factor angle just changing within an acceptable range. It can guarantee the inverter to operate in the small-inductive condition, reduce the switching losses of SITs, and enhance the security of the power supply. Also, the obtained results show that the proposed electrical circuit track perfectly the resonance frequency even around the Curie temperature of the material despite the large variation of the frequency near the Curie point.
