The reheating of the billet in the semi-solid state as quickly and homogeneously as possible is one of the most important aspects. From this point of view, an optimal design of the induction coil is necessary. The objective of inductive coil designsi a uniform induction heating over the length of the billet. The effect of coil length, diameter, the gap between coil surface and billet and axial position of the billet on temperature distribution of billet has been investigated. These design parameters have an important effectiveness on the electro-magnetic field. Therefore, in this study an optimal coil design to minimize electromagnetic ed effect will be proposed by defining the relationship between billet length and coil length. In particular, key point in induction heating process is focussed on optimizing the coil design with regard to the size of the heating billet and the frequency of induction heating system. After demonstrating the suitability of an optimal coil design through the FEM simulation of the induction heating process, the results of the coil design are also applied to the reheating process to obtain a fine globular microstructure. Its considered that the reheating conditions of aluminum alloys for thixoforging and a new CAE model of the induction heating process are very useful for thixoforging practitioners including induction heating ones.

In this study, microstructure, hardening layer hardness, and case depth were evaluated after induction hardening(IH) of base metal specimen(BM) treated with annealing and quenching-tempering specimen(QT) treated with quenching and tempering. The microstructure after IH was significantly influenced by the microstructure before IH and the induction coil heating movement speed, but the effect of the induction frequency was very small. The hardness of the hardened layer at an induction coil heating movement speed of 15 mm/s or less was more influenced by the microstructure before IH than the induction coil travel speed and induction frequency. The induction coil travel speed has the significantly effect on the case depth, the induction frequency has effect and the microstructure before IH has a small effect.

The coil design of induction heating systems and their optimization are of paramount importance for semi-solid processing(SSP) The authors of this paper present the coil design and optimization of a 60 Hz induction heating system for ALTHIX 86S (Al-6%_Si-3%Cu-0.3%Mg) alloy. An objective function on the basis of the optimization process for the coil design is proposed by introducing an optimization technique. Finally the results of the optimal coil design are also applied to the induction heating process to obtain a fine globular microstructure. The proposed new objective function based on the computational techniques would contribute to obtaining the thixoformed components with good mechanical properties and reducing lead time.

Induction heating is a process that is accompanied with magnetic and thermal situation. This paper presents a simulation of a magneto-thermal coupled problem of an induction heating process for moving inductor coil. In the magnetic and thermal analyses, temperature-dependent magnetic and thermal material properties were considered. As the inductor coil moves in the process, solution domains corresponding to inductor changes into those of the air, and the solution domains of air change into those of the inductor. For these reasons, modeling of induction heating process is very difficult with general purpose commercial programs. In this paper, induction heating process for moving coil was simulated with the concept of traveling the position of the heating planes. Finite element program was developed and finite element results were compared with the experimental results.

A silica aerogel sheet with a very low thermal conductivity is used to suppress the temperature increase of the Cu coil in an induction cooker by reducing the heat flow from the heat source (cooking pot). It is found that the temperature of the Cu coil is reduced significantly by the insertion of an insulation sheet between the heat source and the Cu coil, demonstrating the effectiveness of the insulation sheet in the suppression of the heat flow between the cooking pot and the coil. Furthermore, the temperature of the cooking pot increases more rapidly with the use of the insulation sheet, allowing for an increased efficiency of the induction cooker.

본 논문은 Air-cored induction 코일 센서의 고주파 동작 특성에 대한 실험적 관계식을 제시한다. Air-cored induction 코일 센서는 입, 출력 간 선형성이 좋고 저주파 영역에서 정확한 출력 특성 예측이 가능해서 널리 사용되지만 민감도가 낮다는 단점이 있다. 반면, 고주파 영역에서는 코일 센서 구성상의 기생효과로 인해 민감도가 크게 향상되지만 인가되는 자기장 주파수에 대한 출력 민감도의 의존성으로 인해 사용이 제한되어 왔다. 그러나 최근 고정된 주파수의 자기장을 대상으로 하는 비파괴 자기 검사법에서 검사 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 이와 같은 코일 센서의 고주파 특성을 이용하기 시작하였는데 코일 센서를 고주파 영역에서 사용하기 위해서는 고주파 영역에서의 센서 특성에 대한 예측이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 코일 센서의 구성 조건하에서 코일 센서의 주파수 응답 특성을 측정하고 이 측정 결과를 기반으로 하여, 민감도가 최대가 되는 공진 주파수와 최대 민감도를 코일 센서 단면의 지름, 권선 지름, 그리고 권선 수와 같은 구성 파라미터의 함수식으로 근사하였다. 함수식은 실험결과를 잘 반영하며, 추론된 함수식으로부터 원하는 사양을 가지는 코일 센서의 구성 방안 및 관련 회로 설계 사양을 얻을 수 있다.

In shipyards hull forming is performed by the line heating method using a gas torch and by cold treatment using a roll-press. However, this forming process has some issues, such as difficulties in controlling and accurately estimating the amount of the heat input, as well as a harsh working environment due to exposure to loud noises and air pollution. The induction heating method, which is introduced in this paper, exhibits good control and allows for the estimation of precise heat input. Also, workers can carry out the induction heating in a comfortable working environment. In this research, the induction heating simulation, which consists of electro-magnetic, heat transfer and thermal elasto-plastic analysis, was developed and modified through induction heating experiments. Finally, the effective heating coil was designed for the automatic hull forming system based on the results of induction heating simulation. For the purposes of a future study, if an algorithm to obtain optimal working conditions is developed, automatic systems for hull forming can then be constructed.

Rapid and homogeneous heating in heat treatment has been a challenging engineering issue throughout a heating temperature over $1,000^{\circ}C$. Induction heating has been widely used in field of heat treatment compared with conventional heating system. Advantages in homogeneous heating, simple fabrication, and repeatable use can be efficiently made with the induction heater. In this paper, numerical analysis of an induction coil system for heat flux gauge heating is performed. The effect of configuration on the heating performance was considered in various cases of the coil radius, distance between the winding, relative height difference between the heat flux gauge and the coil, and the applied current frequency. Temperature distribution within the heat flux gauge at frequency-steady state was calculated with a finite element method. Sensitivity analysis was also performed and the relative importance of 2 key parameters; coil radius, distance between the winding, were taken as main contributors for induction heating.
