A New Load Resonant Inverter Topology Considering Stray Inductance Influences for Induction Heating

An analysis of a new load resonant inverter considering stray inductance is given. There are several different types for load resonant inverters. They can offer zero turn-on as well as zero turn-off switching losses, yielding high efficiency at high power and high frequencies. However, they didn't consider the influences of stray inductance. In conventional topology using lossless snubber capacitor, stray inductances result in very high frequency resonant current. Especially, these influences can be problematic in high power system such as induction heating system with large current of some 10A associated with it. These currents increase EMI problem, give harmful effects in gate driver's operation and increase loss of dc-link capacitor as well as snubber capacitor. Therefore, the effect of stray inductances should be treated and reduced. This paper presents a new load resonant inverter topology, which can reduce the effect of stray inductances.
