| Abstract | ||
| ABSTRACT Processes of induction heating for surface hardening are mostly designed using engineering experience and a trial-and-error procedure. In connection with advance in computational technique and numerical methods, computer modelling and simulation are ever more exploited to support design and analysis of induction heat treatment processes. Induction heating represents a complex problem requiring to perform coupled electro-magnetic, thermal and static analyses. In the paper, the methodology of computer modelling and analysis of high-frequency induction heating processes using the program code ANSYS is discussed and applied for the numerical simulation of induction heating of a power cylinder piston. | ||
