Virtual Simulation and Modeling of an Inductor-Piece System for Induction Cooker

The present work considers virtual simulations and modeling of an inductor-piece system for induction cooker. As a result of the study an approach for calculating the equivalent parameters of an induction-piece system in an induction cooker, based on the finite element method. The computer investigation and analysis are expanded by modelling processes in COMSOL Multiphysics 5.4. An electromagnetic and temperature model of the equivalent inductor-piece system in an induction cooker is proposed. Electromagnetic and temperature field modelling at different operating frequencies of the power supply has been performed. The results obtained are used in virtual prototyping and industrial electronics training. The proposed methodology, coupled with modern computing, provides new opportunities for optimizing and improving the energy performance of industrial and home devices and systems.
