Study of PDM for Enhancing Performance of IGBT Series-Resonant Inverter

Abstract

The research aims to provide a thorough understanding of a cutting-edge high-power, high-frequency voltage-fed inverter for the demands of industrial induction heating. The configuration used is full bridge inverter design, by using insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), ensuring toughness and efficiency in operation. The inverter stands apart by power control logic, the inverter operates pulse density modulation (PDM). Unlike conventional methods, PDM ensures that the inverter operates very closely to its resonance frequency across all power levels. This approach helps the inverter work efficiently at the right frequency for different power levels. It also makes sure that switching happens smoothly without wasting energy. Zero-voltage and zero-current mean that when the inverter switches on or off, there's no voltage or current flowing. This helps reduce energy loss during switching.
