Abstract
Induction heating is a convenient, efficient, and rapid method of heating conducting material under control atmosphere. In this technique, a conducting body is subjected to a rapidly changing magnetic field producing induced current that causes heating effect. The method is widely used for synthesis of alloys, intermetallic phases, and high melting ceramics. Induction heating also finds applications in material processing like annealing, hardening, tempering, brazing, etc. In the present chapter, the principles of induction hearing, description of different components of induction heater, its operation, and some applications of induction heating in material synthesis & processing will be discussed.
