2 Simple Induction Heater Circuits - Hot Plate Cookers - Homemade Circuit Projects

This document discusses two simple induction heater circuits that can be used to build hot plate cookers. The first circuit uses a Royer oscillator design with a center-tapped coil and the second uses a Mazzilli driver concept with a single work coil. Both circuits use zero-voltage switching technology and high-frequency magnetic induction to generate heat in ferromagnetic metals.

In this post we learn 2 easy to build induction heater circuits which work with high frequency
magnetic induction principles for generating substantial magnitude of heat over a small specified
radius.

The discussed induction cooker circuits are truly simple and uses just a few active and passive
ordinary components for the required actions.

Update: You may also want to learn how to design your own customized induction heater

Induction Heater Working Principle

An induction heater is a device that uses a high frequency magnetic field to heat up an iron load
or any ferromagnetic metal through eddy current.

During this process electrons inside iron are unable to move as fast as the frequency, and this
gives rise to a reverse current in the metal termed as eddy current. This development of high
eddy current ultimately causes the iron to heat up.

The generated heat is proportional to (current)^2 x resistance of the metal. Since the load
metal is supposed to be made up of iron, we consider the resistance R for the metal iron.

Heat = I2 x R (Iron)

Resistivity of Iron is: 97 nΩ·m

The above heat is also directly proportional to the induced frequency and that's why ordinary
iron stamped transformers are not used in high frequency switching applications, instead ferrite

materials are used as cores.

However here the above drawback is exploited for acquiring heat from high frequency magnetic
induction.

Referring to the proposed induction heater circuits below, we find the concept utilizing the ZVS
or zero voltage switching technology for the required triggering of the MOSFETs.

The technology ensures minimum heating of the devices making the operation very efficient and
effective.

Further to add, the circuit being self resonant by nature automatically gets sets at the resonant
frequency of the attached coil and capacitor quite identical to a tank circuit.

Using Royer Oscillator

The circuit fundamentally makes use of a Royer oscillator which is marked by simplicity and
self-resonant operating principle.

The functioning of the circuit could be understood with the following points:

1. When power is switched ON, positive current begins flowing from the two halves of the
work coil towards the drains of the mosfets.
2. At the same the supply voltage also reaches the gates of the mosfets turning them ON.
3. However due to the fact that no two mosfets or any electronic devices can have exactly
similar conducting specifications, both mosfets do not turn on together, rather one of them
turns ON first.
4. Let's imagine T1 turns ON first. When this happens, due to heavy current flowing through
T1, its drain voltage tends to drop to zero, which in turn sucks out the gate voltage of the
other mosfet T2 via the attached schottky diode.
5. Here, it may seem that T1 might continue to conduct and destroy itself.

6. However, this is the moment when the L1C1 tank circuit comes into action and plays a
crucial part. The sudden conduction of T1 causes a sine pulse to spike and collapse at the
drain of T2. When the sine pulse collapses, it dries down the gate voltage of T1, and shuts
it down This results in a rise in voltage at the drain of T1 which allows a gate voltage to

https://www.homemade-circuits.com/simple-induction-heater-circuit-hot/ 2/70
16/2/2020 2 Simple Induction Heater Circuits - Hot Plate Cookers | Homemade Circuit Projects

it down. This results in a rise in voltage at the drain of T1, which allows a gate voltage to
restore for T2. Now, its the turn of T2 to conduct, T2 now conducts, triggering a similar kind
of repetition that occurred for T1.
7. This cycle now continues rapidly causing the circuit to oscillate at the resonant frequency
of the LC tank circuit. The resonance automatically adjusts to an optimal point depending
on how well the LC values are matched.

However the main downside of the design is that it employs a center tapped coil as the
transformer, which makes the winding implementation a bit trickier. However the center tap
allows an efficient push pull effect over the coil through just a couple of active devices such as
mosfets.

As can be seen, there are fast recovery or high speed switching diodes connected across the
gate/source of each mosfet.

These diodes perform the important function of discharging the gate capacitance of the
respective mosfets during their non-conducting states thereby making the switching operation
snappy and quick.

How ZVS Works

As we discussed earlier, this induction heater circuit works using the ZVS technology.

ZVS stands for zero voltage switching, meaning, the mosfets in the circuit switch ON when they
have minimum or amount of current or zero current at their drains, we have already learned this
from the above explanation.

This actually helps the mosfets to switch ON safely and thus this feature becomes very
advantageous for the devices.

This feature could be compared with the zero crossing conduction for triacs in AC mains
circuits.

Due to this property the mosfets in ZVS self resonant circuits such as this require much smaller
heatsinks and can work even with massive loads upto 1 kva.

Being resonant by nature, the frequency of the circuit is directly dependent on the inductance of

https://www.homemade-circuits.com/simple-induction-heater-circuit-hot/ 3/70
16/2/2020 2 Simple Induction Heater Circuits - Hot Plate Cookers | Homemade Circuit Projects

the work coil L1 and the capacitor C1.

The Frequency could be calculated using the following formula:

f = 1 / ( 2π * √[L * C] )

Where f is the frequency, calculated in Hertz

L is the inductance of the Main Heating Coil L1, presented in Henries
and C is the capacitance of the capacitor C1 in Farads

The MOSFETs
You can use IRF540 as the mosfets which are rated at good 110V, 33amps. Heatsinks could be
used for them, although the heat generated is not to any worrying level, yet still it's better to
reinforce them on heat absorbing metals. However any other appropriately rated N channel
MOSFETs can be used, there are no specific restrictions for this.

The inductor or inductors associated with the main heater coil (work coil) is a kind of choke that
helps eliminating any possible entry of the high frequency content into the power supply and
also for restricting the current to safe limits.

The value of this inductor should be much higher compared to the work coil. A 2mH is generally
quite enough for the purpose. However it must be built using high gauge wires for facilitating a
high current range through it safely.

The Tank Circuit

C1 and L1 constitute the tank circuit here for the intended high resonant frequency latching.
Again these too musts be rated to withstand high magnitudes of current and heat.

Here we can see the incorporation of a 330nF/400V metalized PP capacitors.

1) Powerful Induction Heater using a Mazzilli Driver Concept

The first design explained below is a highly efficient ZVS induction concept based on the
popular Mazilli driver theory.

It uses a single work coil and a two current limiter coils. The configuration avoids the need of a

center tap from the main work coil thus making the system extremely effective and rapid heating
of load with formidable dimensions. The heating coil heats the load through a full bridge push
pull action

The module is actually available online and can be easily bought at a very reasonable cost.

The circuit diagram for this design can be seen below:

The original diagram can be witnessed in the following image:

The working principle is the same ZVS technology, using two high power MOSFETs. The supply
input can be anything between 5V and 12V, and current from 5 amps to 20 amps depending on
the load used.

Power Output
The power output from the above design can be as high as 1200 watts, when the input voltage
is raised up to 48V, and current up to 25 amps.

At this level the heat generated from the work coil can be high enough to melt a 1 cm
thick bolt within a minute.

2) Induction Heater using a Center Tap Work Coil

This second concept is also a ZVS induction heater, but uses a center bifurcation for the work
coil, which may be slightly less efficient compared to the previous design. The L1, which is the
most crucial element of the whole circuit. It must be built using extremely thick copper wires so
that it sustains the high temperatures during the induction operations.

https://www.homemade-circuits.com/simple-induction-heater-circuit-hot/ 8/70
16/2/2020 2 Simple Induction Heater Circuits - Hot Plate Cookers | Homemade Circuit Projects

The capacitor as discussed above must be ideally connected as close as possible to the L1
terminals. his is important for sustaining the resonant frequency at the specified 200kHz
frequency.

Primary Work Coil Specifications

For the induction heater coil L1, many 1mm copper wire may be wound in parallel or in bifilar
manner in order to dissipate current more effectively causing lower heat generation in the coil.

Even after this the coil could be subjected to extreme heats, and could get deformed due to it
therefore an alternative method of winding it may be tried.

In this method we wind it in the form of two separate coils joined at the center for acquiring the
required center tap.

In this method lesser turns may be tried for reducing the impedance of the coil and in turn
increase its current handling capability.

The capacitance for this arrangement may be in contrast increased in order to pull down the
resonant frequency proportionately.

Tank Capacitors:
In all 330nF x 6 could be used for acquiring a net 2uF capacitance approximately.

How to Attach Capacitor to the Induction Work Coil

The following image shows the precise method of attaching the capacitors in parallel with the
end termianals of the copper coil, preferably through a well dimensioned PCB.

recovery diodes, which might be difficult to obtain in some parts of the country.

A simple alternative to this may be in the form of BC547 transistors connected instead of the
diodes as shown in the following diagarm.

The transistors would perform the same function as the diodes since the BC547 can operate
well around 1Mhz frequencies.

How L2 is Built

Modifying into a Hot Plate Cookware

The above sections helped us to learn a simple induction heater circuit using a spring like coil,
however this coil cannot be used for cooking food, and needs some serious modifications.

The following section of the article explains, how the above idea can be modified and used like
a simple small induction cookware heater circuit or an induction kadai circuit.

The design is a low tech, low power design, and may not be on par with the conventional units.
The circuit was requested by Mr. Dipesh Gupta

Thanks

Dipesh gupta

The Design
The proposed induction kadai circuit design presented here is just for experimental purpose and
may not serve like the conventional units. It may be used for making a cup of tea or cooking an
omelet quickly and nothing more should be expected.

The referred circuit was originally designed for heating iron rod like objects such as a bolt head.
a screwdriver metal etc, however with some modification the same circuit can be applied for
heating metal pans or vessels with convex base like a "kadai".

For implementing the above, the original circuit wouldn't need any modification, except the main
working coil which will need to be tweaked a bit to form a flat spiral instead of the spring like
arrangement.

As an example, in order to convert the design into an induction cookware so that it supports
vessels having a convex bottom such as a kadai, the coil must be fabricated into a spherical-
helical shape as given in the figure below :

(https://homemade-
circuits.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/inductionkadaicoil-1.png)

The schematic would be the same as explained in my above sevction, which is basically a
Royer based design, as shown here:

Designing the Helical Work Coil

L1 is made by using 5 to 6 turns of 8mm copper tube into a spherical-helical shape as shown
above in order to accommodate a small steel bowl in the middle.
The coil may be also compressed flat into a spiral form if a small steel pan is intended to be
used as the cookware as shown below:

(https://homemade-circuits.com/wp-
content/uploads/2014/08/spiralinductioncoil-1.png)

Designing the Current Limiter Coil

L2 may be built by winding a 3mm thick super enameled copper wire over a thick ferrite rod, the
number of turns must be experimented until a 2mH value is achieved across its terminals.

TR1 could be a 20V 30amp transformer or an SMPS power supply.

The actual induction heater circuit is quite basic with its design and does not need much of an
explanation, the few things that needs to be taken care of are as follows:

The resonance capacitor must be relatively closer to the main working coil L1 and should be
made by connecting around 10nos of 0.22uF/400V in parallel. The capacitors must be strictly
non-polar and metalized polyester type.

Although the design may look quite straightforward, finding the center tap within the spirally
wound design could pose some headache because a spiral coil would have an unsymmetrical
layout making it difficult to locate the exact center tap for the circuit.

It could be done by some trial and error or by using an LC meter.

A wrongly located center tap could force the circuit to function abnormally or producing unequal
heating of the mosfets, or the entire circuit may just fail to oscillate under a worst situation.

sedigh hosein says

hello dear sir i built the first one successfully and paralleled three MOSFETs on each side and increased the
number of capacitors to increase the
work coil power,to melt gold brass and copper i put a crucible that is built from graphite that is a kind of the great
ferromagnetic that resulted to thawing
and melting the three metals through overheating of the crucible and the heat transferred to the metals,and by
pouring and flowing water into the coil pipe
of course without salt that is distilled water,i have a few questions that i am very confused and could not figure
out
the first is how this circuit discover that it has to equalize the L resistor and the C capacitor by varying the
frequency in order to minimize current
and follow it maximum power,,the second one this is that whether by placing Ferrite on the outer side of the
cylindrical coil can the
furnace power be increased by reducing the eruption and magnetic field dispersion and and follow it raising
inductance,,
the third one is that how i can melt steel and iron of course i have to consider removing graphite crucible and
instead of the i must use an ceramic
crucible without ferromagnetic elements

Swagatam (https://www.homemade-circuits.com/) says

Thank you Sedigh, I am glad you could upgrade the first circuit into a high power induction heater. To limit
current or reduce current you can try increasing the number of turns of L2 and L3…the resonance cannot be
decreased since the design is a self resonating circuit.

The first design is the recommended one and I think you should proceed working with this design

sedigh hosein says

thanks a lot for your quick reply dear sir but i wanted to know “”whether exist a few ferrite around the work
coil could increase the power of the furnace ??””and consequently results a decrease of current due to

coil could increase the power of the furnace ?? and consequently results a decrease of current due to
removing eruption dispersion and help to boost transferring whole of the magnetic field to inside coil for
producing eddy current as a result raising efficiency and decrease consumption current

Swagatam (https://www.homemade-circuits.com/) says

Hi Sedigh, I don’t think that would work, the only way to increase heat and reduce current is by matching
the resonance….no other method might work other than resonance.

Anurag says

Can I use a triac light dimmer circuit with a bridge rectifier for powering this induction heater.

Swagatam (https://www.homemade-circuits.com/) says

No, you have to use a 12V DC as described in the schematic

Anurag mehta says

Can I use a triac based power supply by using bta41 triac for 30v 40amp. Also I don’t have large ferrite torroid
nor a rod. So can I use 2 instead of 1 connected in series.

Swagatam (https://www.homemade-circuits.com/) says

No, you must do everything exactly as specified in the diagrams.

Hi, the metal inside the coil should be strictly an iron metal, and it can be of any thickness. You can
actually buy one ready made unit and see how it is built to replicate it again. The capacity of the working
coil is around 500 watts.

Chethan says

If I have to heat a metal pipe of about 25 cm in length and and 1cm diameter,will this design be good enough??
Also can u make a video of explanation of the circuit because I didnt understand fully well

Swagatam (https://www.homemade-circuits.com/) says

The portion of the pipe within the coil will heat up quickly, but the remaining portion of the pipe may take time
to heat. The pipe must be ferromagnetic

Please specify what you did not understand, I’ll try to help!

If I want to make a more powerful induction heater that can heat a voluminous iron rod in a high temperature
what I must to do? Is it possible making such a heater? So what would be the circuit?

Swag (https://www.homemade-circuits.com/) says

Hi Mans, for powerful heater you will have to upgrade the mosfets with higher rating, and use thicker tubes or
wires for all the coils. Similarly the capacitors will also need to be rated with higher current values.

Sir i made zvs circuit using 70t036h 60 amp mosfet and used 12v 20 ampere powersupply but my mosfets are
getting really hot i don’t know why. but it does work and i dont think it will work for more than 5 secs as it will fry
entire circuit.
I used 560 ohm resistor instead of 330 ohm for gate driving and didn’t used lm7812 since i am using constant
voltage

Swag (https://homemade-circuits.com/) says

LM324,

for the above circuits, mosfet will typically heat up due to the following reasons:

high gate resistance or high gate voltage above 15V

High collector current due to lack of resonance.
L2 and L1 not correctly designed.

I think you should try reducing the gate resistance to 100 ohms or even lower.

Make sure the L2 inductance is adjusted to the specified. value.

I hope you have used fast recovery diodes at the gates of the mosfets?

make sure to use large heatsinks on the mosfets.

Use a variable voltage power supply and try tweaking the voltage input and check which combinations
produces the best resonance, using that as the reference keep adjusting the voltage and the L1/L2 turns until
the optimal value is determined at the maximum voltage range.

Lm324n says

Sir my mosfets has 9m ohm. is this the reason for heating

loki says

Sir i used 5 pairs on 13007 transistor instead of the mosfet you said in the diagram and for the inductor i made
10 wound of coil around ferrite transformer and the circuit worked when i connected it to variable power supply
made using lm317t but when i connected to my 12v 5 amp battery it didn’t worked. Sir can you please help me
to make this work

Swag (https://homemade-circuits.com/) says

Hi Loki, what are trying to make?? If you are trying to make an induction heater then your set up will not
work, you will have to do everything exactly as recommended in the above article and diagrams.

loki says

Sir thanks for the quick reply

then i will only replace the mosfet with 13007 and the other components exactly in the diagram. will this work
Thanks

Swag (https://homemade-circuits.com/) says

Loki, if you do it with proper understanding using all the mentioned parameters correctly then it will
definitely work.
remember to use fast recovery diodes at the gates of the mosfets

Adithya M S (https://www.blogger.com/profile/09379109927419833525) says

Sir,
. I have done first circuit by considering all the parameters you have told , it took 5 ferrite rod (each 20cm in
length) by winding 1.5 mm copper wire to get 2mH by verifying on LCR meter , and even exat value 6 capacitor
connected across parallel as mentioned in the article by giving 2uF , and finaly connected to a battery (12v/
80ah) no sooner I cgave power supply one of the mosphet reches to a verry high temperature and blow off and
other remain cool and this happens within 5-6 seconds

I tried 4times the same circuit , evey time mospfet blow off , ialso used heatsinks

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Adithya, why did you use 5 ferrite rods? The coil must be wound over a single ferrite rod…if you do anything
randomly as per your wish, then you will keep blowing the devices.

which diode did you use for the mosfet gates

did you connect the LC tank as indicated in the 3rd diagram from top??

the L2 must a be neatly wound inductor over a single ferrite rod, the shape does not matter.

secondly your circuit must begin self resonating, and this will strictly depnd on the value of the LC tank circuit
and the voltgae.

you must begin with a low volatge may be around 6V and then gradually increase it until you have the best
possible results.

while doing this you must have an ammeter connected i series with the input supply, and you just have a iron
rod inserted through the work coil. This iron could be any 2cm thick iron bolt, or a 2cm thick screwdriver
spindle.

the voltage should be tweaked in a such a way that it results in minimum current consumption and maximum
heat on the rod…..a temperature meter could be installed with the iron rod fr monitoring the heat as the
voltage is gradually increased….at some point you might find that the current is increasing, and heat going
down this is point where you must stop, until this sweet point is not reached you must keep adjusting the
voltage with some trial and error

Hello good Morning.

I am performing the assembly of an induction heating system,
But the tank coil should have a 16-inch diameter and will be fixed in the heating core, but as the power supply
intends to work with the voltage of 220V rectified, it will not cause risk because it will work totally isolated and
away from the users.
It would be possible to assist in the calculation of L1 and L2
Noting that the high voltage of the power supply is due to the high power I need.
10KW.

connected L1 with insulated coper wire to the second circuit by using transitor and power supply with high
guage copper wire to 12v80ah battery and as soon as I supply power , wire (from L1 to circuit )started melting

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Adithya, you must do EXACTLY as suggested in the above article.

use 6 nos of 330nF/400V capacitors in parallel for making the 2uF capacitor, and connect them parallel with
the work coil tube ends.

the work coil must be built using copper tubes or very thick copper wires.
don't use the last circuit, it's only a suggestion and needs to be experimented… use the first circuit with
schotky diodes.

for more info you can refer to youtube videos…there are plenty of videos which will show you how configure
the above type of circuits.

Hello, it will depend on the input current and the coil wire thickness, and also the voltage level, higher
parameters will allow higher temperatures and vice versa…..

it's a self-resonating type of circuit, and the frequency will adjust as per the inductor efficiency…..a better
optimized coil will enable better resonance and proportionately more heat.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

yes, at the drain of the non-conducting fet

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

No, the voltage at drain will be above zero only when the device is not conducting, and will be zero the
moment it starts conducting.

the work coil definitely needs to be mounted on a core otherwise the resonance will never happen and the
devices could get damaged.

the core here is the metal which is being heated, that is the iron bolt or rod whatever it may be.

the capacitors, the coil and the iron core together forms a "tank" circuit which reaches the resonance level
during the operations and causes the desired heating effect.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

sorry not sure about this analysis, since I am not able to simulate it in my mind

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Hi, since both the fets cannot switch ON together due to the slight difference in their switching characteristics,

https://www.homemade-circuits.com/simple-induction-heater-circuit-hot/ 37/70
16/2/2020 2 Simple Induction Heater Circuits - Hot Plate Cookers | Homemade Circuit Projects

let's assume T2 initiates first on power switch ON,

as soon as this happens its gate potential is instantly grounded by its own drain/source terminals via D2 and
L1….dropping its gate potential to a a level where it's forced to shut off.

This enables T1 to initiate the process and it eventually ends up shutting off in the same manner…the cycle
keeps regenerating and continues rapidly giving rise to the required phenomenon…

Hi Swagatam, i love your projects and my son regularly builds them at school in science lessons.
i lastly got him the parts to build a simple Royer style induction heater working from 12v DC but i wonder could
your simple inverter circuit using the IR 2153 from 12v DC be changed to build a more exciting and challenging
induction circuit ? would it be as simple as adding capacitors to the secondary with working coil?
i thank you in anticipation.

regards Kevin

Thanks Kevin, I am glad your son is liking my projects!

my simple inverter circuit is quite similar to the above induction heater concept, so if we try to modify it will
ultimately take the shape of the above design.

However the 50 watt mosfet inverter circuit from this website can be definitely tried for making a versatile and
a more flexible induction heater circuit:

Yes Hi Swagatam, a very interesting self oscillating circuit i will build it one day.
However my aim is to get Dan (my son ) to build something more controllable which is why i mentioned the IR

16/2/2020 2 Simple Induction Heater Circuits - Hot Plate Cookers | Homemade Circuit Projects

However my aim is to get Dan (my son ) to build something more controllable which is why i mentioned the IR
2153 controller, i would like him to achieve some shutdown / protection techniques either with current a
transformer or other direct circuitry and from what i have seen of this IC it does most of this, so if there is any
chance of further guidance in this direction i would very much appreciate it.
It does not have to be very powerful but a nice little controllable safe circuit, as in over current and short circuit
protection these are the techniques that i would like Dan to start learning.

regards Kevin.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

sorry Kev, I completely missed the IR2153, the thought you were referring to this circuit:

https://homemade-circuits.com/2012/02/how-to-make-simplest-inverter-circuit.html (https://homemade-
circuits.com/2012/02/how-to-make-simplest-inverter-circuit.html)

OK, so referring to the IR2153 design, it can be enhanced with a current control feature by using an ordinary
BC547 and a current sensing resistor network across its shutdown Ct pin, this will make sure that the fets
can never conduct current above a specified limit

If you wish you can send the working details of the project with pictures and get paid for the submission, I'll
publish it in my website.

Can I use a pancake coil in L1????

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

yes, it can be tried….

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Initially you should try with a lower voltage may be around 12V, if everything goes well then you can increase it
to higher levels for acquiring higher heating ranges.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Hi, yes 17V, 25 amp will do.

L2 will need to be built by winding 22 SWG enameled copper wire until you reach a 2mH value. the current
could be around 10 to 20 amps through L2
there are some good videos in Youtube which you can see for a clearer view of the procedures.

Hi, Have you ever done or thought to a circuit relevant an induction heater with a function generator as a
controller?
The sense of this request is that I wish to build an induction cooker circuit with the possibilities to verify the
frequency value, through my function generator I’m able to achieve a few KHz to a few MHz; my problem is How
can I feed the cooker coil without a sort of amplifier? The power after function generator isn't sufficient to feed
the coil. In other terms I wish to implement this: Function Generator -> Electronic -> Cooker Coil. Have you got
any idea?

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Hi, I have a similar one circuit in this website you can see it below:

https://homemade-circuits.com/2013/12/induction-heater-circuit-using-igbt.html (https://homemade-
circuits.com/2013/12/induction-heater-circuit-using-igbt.html)
but without a current amplifier driving the work coil is not possible, therefore power devices will be required
for generating the specified amount of heat from the coil.

Dear Prasetyo, the above design is a self resonating kind of circuit so I am not sure whether a coil with a
different dimension would automatically adjust with it…or what necessary modifications might be required.

you can try though by changing the L2 specs also, through experimentation

Onkar, it will be difficult to troubleshoot because I do not know what mistake you might have made in it.

L2 is around 2mH…did you verify this inductance value?

initially use a 200 watt bulb in series with transformer primary, and check whether the coil produces heat or
not….

the work coil needs to be built exactly as shown in the above figure, and same is true for the capacitor bank

you can check a few you tube videos on this subject and see how it's is implemented practically…

hello Saiful, where did you use the zener diode, if you used it for the 7812 it might have got burnt and
shorted, make sure you use a 7812 IC as shown in the first diagram and not a zener diode….
if you use a 12V/15amp transformer you can get rid of the 7812.

I have put a similar induction coil in a range cooker, instead of a circular cast iron hotplate, I have a circular plate
glass sitting in the old hotplate recess with the induction coil underneath, will the all the cast iron in the cooker
top affect the induction unit.
It worked for a while but now I am receiving an E0 error on the control panel, but I am going to switch to manual
control, Potenimeter I think? would this help Thanks.

sorry, I could not understand your question, do you mean you used a glass instead of cast iron and you are
wondering if that would affect the results, then probably the answer is yes, if the cooker is a non-magnetic
thing it won't react with the coil's magnetic induction and won't heat up.

where do you intend to use the potentiometer?

I have updated the coil data in the parts list.

I have no idea regarding the simulation details, however the circuit has been already tested practically
successfully with no issues whatsoever

Swagatam says

as you can see in the image, L1 consists of two separate coils made by curling two turns each of brass pipes
and then then by joining the center together…..so total it becomes 4 turns, but you can try 3 turns each to
make 6 turns.

power supply should be 15V minimum and 15 amps

please check the youtube videos you'll able to see these circuits in real and how these are configured and
tested to produce heat.

if 15amp is the breakdown limit of the choke then it will not do, if it's the optimal rating then it won't be a
problem.

I think the choke wire should be at least 2mm thick or made by using 2 strands of 1mm wire to be able to
withstand 15amps

My application requires that the object being heated (will be very thin) can be inserted and removed through the
side of the coil, as both ends of that object will be fixed and unable to be pulled through the center of the coil.
Are you able to tell me if there is any way to construct this without a completely closed heating coil (i.e. with a C-
like cross-section instead of an O-shaped cross-section) to allow for side entry of a thin (~2mm diameter)
object?

Hello, I don't think that's feasible, one method could be by creating a flat spiral coil and then by introducing
the object close to the surface of the spiral.

An example spiral coil image may be witnessed in the third diagram below:

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

the choke (L2) is specifically introduced to limit current and to optimize resonance frequency, if you remove it
the circuit is bound to fry immediately.

Hey, great thread. I was wondering what changes would need to be made to the schematic and the induction
coil to work using 3.7vdc max 30amp load. This would obviously be used in a micro induction coil to heat small
objects such as a sewing needle. And suggestion on coil size, wrapping and component change on the
schematic would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Dan

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

thanks Dan, I think it may have to be done through some trial and error since I do not have a formula for
calculating the coil.

The only thing I know is that as the turns increase and the diameter decrease the operating frequency and
the current consumption also decrease proportionately, so on this basis you could probably do some
experimentation.

L2 and the other components except the voltage may not require a change as per my knowledge

hi sir…we try the circuit using the power supply of the computer as the power supply to the circuit….in our first
try….the metal that we put on the middle of the working coil gets hot….but the mosfets gets hot too…..so we
decided to change the heatsink with bigger one……after changing we try it again…….and the metal dont get
hot……why is it happen sir??thanks for the reply

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Hi Christian, I guess this could be related to some frequency variations due to the introduction/removel of the
metal plate.

heating up of the msgfets might be hampering the generation of the resonance frequency which might be
getting corrected with the addition of the larger hetasink and resulting in an automatic correction of the
frequency.

Not sure though, this could be the reason.

by the way you are not supposed to put a metal inside the working coil, this might seriously affect the
functioning of the circuit

christian king Cristobal (https://www.blogger.com/profile/16829422216061333449) says

I'm sorry sir… the metal that we put inside the working is a screw driver just to test if it is working already,if the
working coil produce induction heat

working coil produce induction heat

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

oh… that was quite silly of me, I completely forgot that a metal (magnetic) needs to be inserted inside the
work coil for implementing the design, make sure the heatsinks are perfectly aloof and are not touching
anything in the circuit….

any power supply will do as long as it's able to generate 15 to 20 amps for the circuit.

christian king Cristobal (https://www.blogger.com/profile/16829422216061333449) says

good day sir…..in the 2 small diagram above…..the c1 and c2 are in different position…which capacitor do we
need to parallel in the l1?

christian king Cristobal (https://www.blogger.com/profile/16829422216061333449) says

we use a power supply of a computer….if we use the bridge driver type circuit…do we still needed to parallel a
capacitor with the + and – of the power supply??

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

C1 value needs to be arranged by putting many MKT capacitors in parallel.

If you are using a pure DC from an SMPS in that case C2 can be eliminated….

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

….I am referring to C1 which is in parallel with L1, and C2 at the bridge…

Hi there,

Its a very nice technology. Thanks for the circuit.

What is the value of L1 and can i use pan cake coil of the same inductance?

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

The inductance value is not crucial, you can make it as per the given instructions in the diagram, yes with
little modifications it can be converted for the pan type implementation.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

hello jayalaxmi,
the power specs are approximately 20V 15amps

Cant we heat the coil with Dc source using driver circuit??

I did an oscillator circuit of a supply of 24Vdc and 0.3A and got an output of 46MHz and 19v as peak to peak
voltage.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Jayalaxmi, the coil is not supposed to heat, the vessel is supposed to get hot.

0.3A will not produce any result…it should be at least 10 to 15 ampere

Dear Swagatam, thank you very much for the details of the construction of this circuit. I built the heater and
works well. I have a question related to the possibility to change the frequency of the system. I need differents
frequencies. And I am thinking of if possible to change Capacitor and L at the same time to get any frequency.
This is possible? Like for example 200Khz , 300 Khz, 400 and soon.
Also I would know how I can calculate the magnetic intensity of the system.
Thank you very much.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Thanks Guillermo, the above circuit is a self resonant type of configuration so frequency cannot be changed
manually….you may have to incorporate an external oscillator circuit for implementing an adjustable
resonance, the following half bridge circuit could tried with the coil network explained in the above article for
achieving the same:

can i fed the circuit with directly 20 amp or i have to increase it gradually because the insulation of my wire

what is the reason for the same

increase it gradually, but if the mosfets are also burning it means the circuit is malfunctioning and there could
be a fault in the circuit

Pratik Vichare (https://www.blogger.com/profile/14660128915432174628) says

sir plz help me out.

when i increase the voltage with the variac my bridge rectifier burned out at 7 volt and if i fed the circuit directly
my mosfet burned out.
what should i do..

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Pratik, it means the circuit is drawing huge currents without load, something is incorrect in your circuit.

try a bridge driver type of circuit instead of the above self resonanat design for reliable results

Thanks Swagatam
I made my induction heater successfully now i want to increase its power..
Can i increase power of this induction heater using more mosfets in parallel?
Please scheme a circuit for parallel combination.
Thanks

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

Thanks Waqar, to increase power you may try increasing the input current and also the voltage, and upgrade
the mosfet with other higher rated ones, parallel combination may not be recommended.

You can select an appropriate mosfet pair from the following article

easydatasheets.blogspot.in/p/mosfets.html

waqarshakoor (https://www.blogger.com/profile/16693261694968527278) says

One more thing

At the start current go up very high without anything inside..

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

you can use a 1000 watt halogen lamp in series with the mains input to the transformer, this will ensure that
the initial amp intake does not exceed to dangerous levels.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

yes preferably the caps must be p;aced slightly away from the coil, may be a 6 inches distance will do.

Paul Cárdenas (https://www.blogger.com/profile/17102011330096362607) says

thank you very much.

the number of turns can prove, but the electronic elements can recommend me what changes should be do.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

The configuration will remain as is. The resistors could be increased to 1K 10 watt (wirewound) each,
everything will need to be done through trial and error, though.

For the mosfets you can use IRF840, however since mains voltage is involved, the risks of an untoward
could be on the cards, I am not recommending use of 220V for this project.

Paul Cárdenas (https://www.blogger.com/profile/17102011330096362607) says

Hello Swatam
what changes I should make in the circuit to operate at 220V , two phases, each 110 V and a power of 6kW.
and I'm thinking to cool L1 and L2 with water that circulates inside

Sorry, I think that may not be recommended and could require more number of turns for L1/L2…I do not have

Brad Harris Payomo (https://www.blogger.com/profile/02715440713288651634) says

is it safe that my transformer that is rated 6A only is giving me up to 10A of current. Because i connected it to a
bridge rectifier and a 4700uF caps to make a dc power supply, then i successfully make the circuit work but
when I measured the current flowing to the transformer using a clamp meter, it gives me up to 10A depending
on the metal to be heated. is it still safe for the transformer producing greater current than its rating?

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

if it's showing more than the specified amps of the transformer means the voltage is being dropped
proportionately in the course….so ultimately the total power is never being exceeded.

as far as the above circuit is concerned, the coil would handle current depending upon its thickness, if it's
correctly dimensioned it would be safe.

Is there any alternative power supply? Cause its too expensive to buy a 20 A transformer then make it DC
supply. By the way, could I use a power supply with adjuster in order to control the temparature of the induction
coil?

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

sorry there's no direct alternative for high current. You can reduce it proportionately by increasing the voltage,
but that would also require modifications in the work coil, the turns will need to be increased while the gauge
will need to reduced accordingly.

to some level according to the object inside the coil. Somehow, I try this with 1/2 diameter steel pipe with
0.5mm thickness. Current goes up and increasing. After a while when pipe is in red hot, current suddenly
increase very rapidly and FET burn-out. At this point, everything stop. I have to change FET as it was shorted
Drain-Source. I used IRFP250N and diode BYV26E, pretty high rated voltage and current but still failed. Do you

Helo Sitti,

Try the following circuit, set Rt, Ct for getting 200khz, use L2 in place of "L" and the L1 for RL.

This circuit will never allow your mosfets to blow off, according to me.

Helo Salman,

Yes you can do it, but the pipe should be made of iron or steel (magnetic material)

Salman Usman (https://www.blogger.com/profile/08140037939274622548) says

Hello sir can I use it for boiling a moving water from pipe.

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

No, only the specified type will work.

Dear sir which diode can i put in place of FR107

Swagatam (https://www.blogger.com/profile/13783312838408713408) says

You can use BC547 transistor in place of the diodes. Connect base and collector together with the gate of the
mosfet and emitter to the drain of the other mosfet Remember this is only a suggestion
