induction crucible furnace, ferromagnetic conducting crucible, adaptive power controller, structural model, control system, pulse-frequency modulation, control channelAbstract
A structural model of a high-frequency induction crucible furnace with a conducting ferromagnetic crucible is developed in the Simulink/Matlab environment based on investigations carried out by the authors.
The inductor current was calculated using the inductor's resistance and inductance dependences on temperature, frequency, and current.
An induction crucible furnace power control system structural model is designed based on the developed model. The output voltage pulse-frequency modulation is used as a furnace power control method.
An adaptive power controller for the induction crucible furnace with a conducting ferromagnetic crucible is developed, which includes two channels for control of the power supply source frequency and voltage.
It has been determined that the melting with the lowest energy expenditures is obtained in the case of using a power controller with two different adaptive control structures. The controller operates based on the frequency control principle and uses structures depending on the current temperature value.
The use of the adaptive power controller with two control channels can significantly reduce the specific electric energy consumption in comparison with automatic frequency adjustment, in particular, by a factor of 1.45 for the IGT-1.6M industrial furnace.
