Abstract
In this paper, a study of the Discontinuous current Mode (DM) control applied to a half-bridge series resonant inverter for domestic induction heating is presented. The proposed control is interesting for this application because it exhibits reduced switching losses and the output power control is linear with the switching frequency. Considering that the load is disconnected from the source during part of the switching period, with DM control. A time-domain analysis method is proposed to obtain the analytical expression of the output power, the capacitor voltage and load current. The validity of the analytical expression is checked through simulation. Finally, an experimental comparison of efficiency between traditional controls and the DM control is performed for the induction heating application. In the low power range the efficiency of DM control is higher than traditional schemes.
