Induction heating system design
Electromagnetic field distribution, eddy currents and heat generation, skin effect, and coupled temperature field analysis for induction heating equipment.
Available Analysis Modules
QuickField can be applied to many aspects of induction heating system design:
AC Magnetics
Magnitude and distribution of the electromagnetic field, eddy current and heat generation distribution; skin effect analysis.
Heat Transfer (coupled with AC Magnetics)
Temperature distribution.
Companion Tools
- AC Magnetics / heat transfer bidirectional coupling iterator
- Induction heating simulation tool — this script batch-generates a series of coupled AC Magnetics and transient heat transfer problems, for simulating induction heating of materials whose electromagnetic properties vary with temperature
