도전체에 적절한 열을 가하기 위하여 상당히 높은 수준의 자기장을 이용한다. 이러한 높은 자기장을 만들기 위하여 유도가열 코일은 상당히 높은 고주파 전류를 이용하게 되는데, 이로 인하여 코일 자체에도 상당히 높은 발열이 발생하게 된다. 따라서 실제적으로 코팅물질의 발열을 위하여 전달되는 에너지 이외에 소모적으로 사용되는 코일에서 사용되는 에너지가 어쩔수 없이 존재하게 된다. 이는 전자기코일의 효율을 낮추는 역할 뿐만 아니라 안정적인 운전을 저해하는 역할을 하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 전자기 및 온도 해석을 통하여 유도가열 코일의 구조에 따른 효율 및 코일에서의 온도 분포등을 도출하여 전자기 유도가열코일의 설계에 이용하고자 한다.

Objectives: Objective of this study is to review briefly exposure characteristics, monitoring instruments and threshold limit values for extremely low frequency-magnetic field (ELF-MF) methods. This study was undertaken through brief literature review. We performed a literature search in PubMed to identify ELF-MF studies conducted in workplaces. Initial search keywords such as 'extremely low frequency-magnetic field (ELF-MF)' and 'electromagnetic fields (EMF)' combined or singly. We limited our review to occupational rather than general nonworkplace environmental exposures. Methods: The contents we reviewed: key industry and occupations generating ELF-MF, several direct-reading instruments monitoring ELF-MF and threshold limit values (TLV) preventing health effects may be caused by the exposure to ELF-MF. Results: The industries related to the generation and supply of electricity, electrolytic installations, welding, and induction heating and more were regarded as high ELF-MF exposure industries. All jobs handling or employed performed in power cable lines, electrical wiring, and electrical equipment are found to be exposed to ELF-MF. Threshold or ceiling limit, 1,000 µT, is established to prevent acute effects of exposure to low-frequency EMFs on the nervous system: the direct stimulation of nerve and muscle tissues and the induction of retinal phosphenes. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified ELF-MF as possibly carcinogenic to humans chiefly based on epidemiological studies on childhood leukemia. However, a causal relationship between magnetic fields and several types of cancer including childhood leukemia has not been established nor has any other long-term effects. Risk management using precautionary measures, has been initiated by the US and EU to prevent chronic health effects related to ELF-MF exposure in workplaces. Conclusion: This study recommends the implementation of various measures such as theestablishment of occupational exposure limit values for ELF-MF and precautionary principle to prevent potential chronic occupational health effects may be caused by ELF-MF in Korea.
