In shipbuilding, accurate fabrication of curved hull plates is one of the most important steps, since the shape of ship hull, which is very critical in the overall performance of a ship, is a collection of such plates. The curved hull plates forming process requires a significant amount of time by skilled workers in shipbuilding. In general, the workers cause thermal distortion in the plate and forming initial shape using gas heat source. So shipbuilding companies need skilled workers who have long experience. To solve the problem, a lot of researchers tried to develop automation system for curved hull plates. In this paper, we propose automatic heating system with gantry robot, high frequency induction heater to replace the gas heat source and automatic measurement system. We apply the system to forming concave type plate that is actually used in ship manufacturing. In addition, a system was developed to automatically generate heating information, such as the heating location and the heating speed, for actual heating process. Then the system was applied to the actual heating material. It is shown that the proposed triangle heating pattern makes desired concave shape successfully. The induction heating system showed that it can be used for automation system of curved hull plates forming process replacing gas heat source.

Power requirement to the induction heating system varies during the heating process. A closed loop control is required to have a smooth control over the power. In this work, a constant frequency pulse density modulation based power tracking control scheme for domestic induction heating system is developed using the Fuzzy Logic Controller. In the conventional power modulation schemes, the switching losses increase with the change in the load. The proposed pulse density modulation scheme maintains minimum switching losses for the entire load range. This scheme is implemented for the class-D series resonant inverter system. Fuzzy logic controller based power tracking control scheme is developed for domestic induction heating power supply for various power settings. The open loop and closed loop simulation studies are done using the MATLAB/Simulink simulation tool. The control logic is implemented in hardware using the PIC16F877A microcontroller. Fuzzy controller tracks the set power by changing the pulse density of the gate pulses applied to the inverter. The results obtained are used to know the effectiveness of the fuzzy logic controller to achieve the set power.

Ball milling of elemental powders in advance and using an induction heating system for intermetallic coatings are known to enhance the reactivity of combustion synthesis. In this work, the effects of simultaneously applying these two incentive methods on the properties of intermetallic coatings are studied. Ni-Al powder compacts ball-milled with three different ball-to-powder weight ratio mixtures are synthesized and coated on mild steel by combustion synthesis in an induction heating system. Consequently, similar to an electrical heating system, the positive effects of ball milling on the combustion synthesis are confirmed in the induction heating system. The enhancement in synthetic reactivity achieved by applying the two incentive methods at the same time is greater than that by applying each incentive method separately. In particular, the enhancement is remarkable at low reaction temperature. However, there are limitations to improving the reactivity by simultaneously applying the two incentive methods to the combustion synthesis, unlike the reaction temperature. The microstructure and hardness of the coating layer are both influenced by the ball-charging ratio employed in the ball-milling process.

Abstract: In this study, an induction heating system using resonance is developed to remove remaining moisture and contaminations which could be generated during fabricating secondary batteries. This system is composed of power supply and induction coil. Power supply needs an oscillator, zero crossing detection, frequency tracking function, and induction coil needs a dummy coil to obtain a uniform temperature distribution. It is very important to obtain a uniform heating temperature distribution of battery cell case in the induction heating system before pouring electrolyte into battery cell. Experimental results show a temperature distribution deviation of below 1℃ in the external position of battery cell cases. As well, the temperature of battery cell itself shows distribution of 40℃±3℃.

A new high frequency switching drive method using IGBT is proposed for non-magnetic induction heating system. Using this method, the switching and conduction losses of the switching devices can be reduced. In addition, since IGBT cosl is lower than MOS-FET one, the system cosl can be remarkably pared down. The prototype induction heating system with 1.2㎾ power consumption is builted and tested to verify the operation of the proposed high frequency switching drive method.

In order to prevent crack in thick weld zones, the preheating process such as induction and gas torch heating needs to be applied. Among them induction heating is the most effective heat source because it has rare thermal effect and very rapid heating characteristics. In this paper, when the induction heating method is used to improve arc welding, the temperature distribution and magnetic field density of the welding zones are analyzed by simultaneously solving heat transfer and electromagnetic field equation. In particular, cone and flat type coils are designed and induction heating effects of each type are compared to identify heating characteristics on a V-groove weld joint. As a result, a cone shape coil is more efficient in the preheating process. When induction heating and arc welding system is designed for thick plate with V-groove weld joint, the results in this paper could be applied.

This paper proposes an analysis of an inverter circuit which has an induction heating load. Two major kinds of the inverters are E-class quasi resonant and half-bridge type. The analyses of induction heating load property and operation property are introduced. A simulation program which implements those properties is also introduced. The results of the simulation program are verified through experimental results.

선체의 외판은 복잡한 곡면 형상이며 대부분의 조선소에서는 이의 제작을 위해 가스 토치를 이용한 선상 가열 방법을 사용하고 있다. 가스 토치를 이용한 전통적인 선상 가열 방법은 입열량의 제어가 어려울 뿐만 아니라 고압의 가스 분출에 따른 소음과 대기 오염 등 열악한 작업 환경의 문제점을 안고 있다. 최근에는 입열량의 제어가 비교적 용이하고 친환경적인 고주파 유도 가열에 주목하여 이를 가열 열원으로 하는 강판의 성형 자동화 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강판의 곡면 성형을 위한 유도 가열 시뮬레이션 방법을 개발하였으며 유도 가열 실험 결과와 비교하여 그 유효성을 검증하였다. 개발된 유도 가열 시뮬레이션 방법은 효율적인 유도 가열 코일 설계와 최적 성형 조건 산출 등 유도 가열을 이용한 선체 외판의 곡가공 자동화 시스템 개발에 유용한 해석적 툴로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
