This paper descries the operation of a heater which was designed to control a motor that generates an eddy current. As the motor drives the rotor of an eddy current heater, magnetic fields are provided within the air gap between an eddy current heater's rotor and stator. Throughout the research, a rotor composed of 8 and 16 pieces of magnets was used to analyze which are the factors that affect the efficiency of this equipment. Test results showed that the magnetic fields are influenced by variable functions including the velocity of a motor and the quantity of magnets composing a rotor.

In this research, a heater using eddy current for generator is designed and some analysis is performed to validate the system. FEM (finite element method) is used for analysing eddy current phenomena at the various speed of rotor with permanent magnet. A real heater system is fabricated. Some experiment is also performed to validate the analysis result. Through the experiment, the FE analysis is validated and we found that the efficiency of developed heater is over 94%.

Eddy Current is one of ways to make heat using rotational energy of wind turbine rotor. Four difference arrays of permanent magnets around rotor surface are used to generate heat using eddy current in this study. For the evaluation of heating performance, new test rig is prepared to measure water flow and temperatures in the inlet and outlet of the eddy current heat generator. In the test, torque and rotational speed are also measured in the motor driven system, and evaluated if the torque is matched with it of wind turbine rotor or not. It will be shown that the eddy current heat generator can be applied to real urban wind energy systems in this study.

유도가열용 공진형 인버터는 부하에 전류가 흐르면 전자유도 작용에 의해서 와전류가 발생된다. 이 와전류에 의해 발열체가 가열되는 시스템이다. 그러나 유도가열용 인버터에 사용되는 IGBT나 MOSFET와 같은 스위칭 소자들은 스위칭 시 순간 과전류의 발생이나 외부의 이상과전류로 인해서 소자가 파괴 되거나 오작동을 일으키게 되어 전기기기의 손상을 가져올 수 있다. 이를 방지하기 위하여 공급 전원에 비교기를 사용하여 전류의 변화를 감지하고 전류를 차단하는 고주파 직렬 공진형 인버터를 이용한 유도가열 시스템의 안정화에 관한 연구를 하고자 한다.

Two step serial load induction superheater has been proposed using resonance type induction heat method in this paper. Heat method is a type of flowing the electron induction and current to special alloy heater in body from external heat coil with non-contact method. Inverter was a full bridge serial load resonance type and inductor was used as load in LC resonance design to maximize the efficiency. The developed system is a new heat exchanging method combined with electromagnetic induction heater and fluid movement, ana very accurate to control of heating the gas, liquid and evaporated mass, so on without combustion process.

EML coating system은 코팅물질에 적절한 열을 가하기 위하여 상당히 높은 수준의 자기장을 이용한다. 이러한 이유로 인하여 EML 코일 주변에 자기장 차폐를 하지 않을 경우 주변의 금속성 물질에 전자기 유도 현상에 의하여 높은 수준의 와전류가 발생하여 결과적으로 열적인 손실을 발생하게 된다. 이러한 열적인 손실은 전체 시스템읠 효율 뿐 만 아니라 시스템의 안정적인 운전에도 좋지 않은 영향을 주게 된다. 이러한 영향을 방지하기 위하여 EML coil 주변은 자기 차폐를 하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 자기장 차폐용도로 사용하게 되는 자기차폐용 물질의 종류 및 구조에 따른 자기차폐성능 및 각 자기차폐물질에서의 발열을 전자기 해석을 통하여 도출 하였다.
