Abstract
Induction heating applications require high frequency currents which are obtained using resonant converters viz., Series and Parallel resonant inverters. The resonance frequency in these converters will be tuned to a high value. In this paper a single-switch parallel resonant converter for induction heating is simulated. It is compared with the existing inverter topologies; half bridge and full bridge. The circuit consists of input LC-filter, bridge rectifier and one controlled power switch. The switch operates in soft commutation mode and serves as a high frequency generator. Output power is controlled via switching frequency.
