This paper presents a practical optimal design procedure for small induction heating devices. An experimental modeling of the physical properties and a practical simulation technique for the nonsinusoidal input waveform is adopted. The design sensitivity analysis with Levenberg-Marquardt method is used for the optimal design process. The proposed method is applied to an induction heating pan cooker model, and the result is verified by experiment
