Practical Application of Eddy Currents Generated by Wind
2011
When a conductive material is subjected to time-varying magnetic fluxes, eddy (Foucault) currents are generated in it and magnetic field of opposite polarity as the applied one arises. Due to the internal resistance of the conductive material, the eddy currents will be dissipated into heat (Joule heating). Conventional domestic water heaters utilize gas burners or electric resistance heating elements to heat the water in the tank and substantial part of the energy to use for it is wasted. In this paper the origin of electromagnetic induction heat generated by wind turbine in special heat exchange camera connected to water boiler is discussed and material evaluation performed using mathemati…
Creation of Temperature Field in a Finite Cylinder by Alternated Electromagnetic Force
2004
One of the modern areas of applications developed during last years is effective use of electrical energy produced by alternating current in production of heat energy. This process is ecologically clean.The water is weakly electrically conducting medium (electrolyte). Devices based on this principle are developed during last ten years. Compared to classical devices with heating elements, new devices are more compact.
Series and parallel resonant inverters for induction heating under short-circuit conditions considering parasitic components
1999
Series and parallel resonant inverters are the common structures in high power industrial generators for induction heating applications. In practical working conditions, short-circuit of the heating coil is very common, normally producing overvoltages that can damage the power transistors of the inverter if no special precautions are taken. The aim of the paper is to show the mechanism of how overvoltages are generated under short-circuit conditions of the heating coil for series and parallel inverters.
Coupling between oxidation kinetics and anisothermal oil flow during deep-fat frying
2021
Deep-fat frying is a cooking technique that has been used continuously since prehistoric times. A domestic deep-fryer heated from the bottom develops significant convection inside the bath cavity. It is responsible for very high heat transfer coefficients and the exposure of the deep-frying oil to the atmospheric oxygen. The continuous conversion of gaseous dioxygen into unstable and reactive hydroperoxides and their subsequent advection throughout the bulk volume is at the origin of the main complaints made of frying which includes issues such as odors, fouling, and generation of several toxic compounds. This study analyzes the coupling between natural convection of triacylglycerols and th…
