Abstract
This paper describes the analysis and performance of a full-bridge LLC resonant converter based on power supplies for IH applications. The analysis contains five components: half bridge inverter, resonant tank, high frequency transformer, rectifier and coil. The switching bridge generates a square waveform to excite the LLC resonant tank, which will produce a resonant sinusoidal current which is transferred to the secondary of the converter through a high-frequency transformer. As it scales the voltage up or down according to the output requirements. The load represented by the equivalent circuit of the coil and work-piece is fed by the current transformed by the rectifiers. Considering that load parameters and resonant frequency vary greatly in all phases of system operation, this paper provides improved knowledge of output power control for high temperature applications. The validity of the analyzed converter parameters had been simulated and tested using MATLAB-SIMULINK software. The results of testing demonstrated that the proposed scheme and assembly has good efficiency, and it is well suited for magnetic induction heating systems
