Abstract

This paper presents a novel prototype of zero current switching pulse frequency modulation (ZCS-PFM )high frequency series resonant inverter using IGBT power module for electromagnetic induction eddy current heated roller in copy and printing machines. The operating principle and unique features of this voltage-fed half bridge inverter with two additional soft commutation inductor snubber are presented including the transformer modeling of induction heated rolling drum. This soft switching inverter can achieve stable zero current soft commutation under a discontinuous and continuous resonant load current for a widely specified power regulation processing. The experimental results and computer-aided analysis of this inverter are discussed from a practical point of view.
