Induction Cooking Application Based on Class E Resonant Inverter: Simulation using MATLAB

This paper presents simulation of induction cooker circuit using class E resonant inverter in MATLAB. Induction heating is well known technique for producing very high temperature in fraction of time. Induction cooking is an application of induction heating which is used for residential and commercial usage. With the help of class E resonant inverter, high power factor and low line current can be obtained, which are very attractive in terms of commercial production. The induction cooker's parameters using class E resonant inverter are designed properly and details of design are described. Switching technique using pulse density modulation (PDM) is presented for the inverter to control the temperature. Along with the description of system model simulation results are obtained and verified with the system model.
