| Abstract |
This paper presents a new conceptual electromagnetic induction eddy current based stainless steel plate spiral type heater for heat exchanger or dual packs heater in hot water system boiler steamer and super heated steamer, which is more suitable and acceptable for new generation consumer power applications. In addition, an active clamping quasi-resonant PWM high frequency inverter using trench gate IGBTs power module can operate under a principle of zero voltage soft commutation with PWM is developed and demonstrated for a high efficient induction heated hot water system and boiler in the consumer power applications. This consumer induction heater power appliance using active clampillg soft switching PWM high frequency inverter is evaluated and discussed on the basis of experimental results. |
