Design and Development of FPGA-Based Control System for a 50KW IGBT-Driven Induction Heater

Abstract Details

2023, Master of Science in Engineering, Youngstown State University, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.
This research document presents the development of a fully digital controller embedded on a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for a 50 kW induction heater. The document explores the fundamentals of induction heaters and resonant tank circuits, the operation of the half-bridge inverter unit, and the implementation of phase control techniques. In addition to providing simulation results and a comparative analysis of simulation and hardware implementations, this study demonstrates the practical implications of the developed controller. The research affirms the effective functionality of the fully implemented embedded controller in real-world applications.
