Abstracts: This project aims to construct a model of an induction heating system with high frequency switching. The induction heating process aims at heating any ferrous material using eddy currents. The eddy currents are generated by applying high frequency electromagnetic field on the material. Our objective is to perform the same, and to implement certain amount of safety features, such as overload protections, under voltage and under current protection. Also, data logging of the system events and faults will be done using SD card, e.g. system ON/OFF, system ON time, system overload, and input power faults. An LCD will be provided with buttons for easy control and viewing fault logs.
