Optimal Design of Internal Induction Coils
Internal induction heating coils are not so well studied as external. Three main induction coil styles were proposed in pioneering works many years ago: Cylindrical coils, Hair-pin coils and Rod-type coils [1, 2]. It was clear from the very beginning that electromagnetic parameters of the coils of two…

Computer Assisted Induction Aluminum Brazing
Induction brazing of aluminum is becoming more and more common in industry. A typical example is brazing various pipes to an automotive heat exchanger body. The induction coil widely used for this type of process is non-encircling one, which can be referred to as “Horseshoe-hairpin” style. For these…
