This paper presents a detailed analysis of circuit operation under ZVS and NON-ZVS switching conditions in a high-frequency full-bridge inverter for induction heating, using the principle of asymmetrical phase-shift control over a wide control range both in positive and negative directions. A variety of modes of circuit operation with the voltage and current equations during phase-shift power control under the operating conditions of ZVS and NON-ZVS are analyzed as a first step and the output voltage and current waveforms are obtained by MATLAB program. These waveforms will be analyzed by Fourier analysis which can lead further to the calculation of ac output power PO, dc input power Pd, and hence the conversion efficiency 17 of the full-bridge inverter. The analysis results shows that the control ranges of ac output power PO and dc input power Pd are limited by the occurrence of NON-ZVS operating condition, which changes according to the switching frequency fs .

MemberThis paper presents a detailed analysis of circuit operation under ZVS and NON-ZVS conditions in a full-bridge high-frequency phase-shift control series resonant MOSFET inverter with the load of induction heating. Various modes of circuit operation both under ZVS and NON-ZVS conditions are first analyzed in details. The voltage and current equations of these circuits are then obtained and used for calculation of the waveforms by MATLAB program. The calculated results can lead to the consideration of various circuit parameters that determine ZVS or NON-ZVS operating conditions. The theoretical results are also verified by experimental ones, using a prototype test set rated at 3 kW.
