The induction technique has several inherent advantages for heat treating vehicle components. Induction heating produces only internal heat sources. These sources provide high power densities and high selectivity of heating in the depth and along the surface of the part, which is very important for local heat treating. In addition, induction heating works well in any processing atmosphere (air, protective gas, vacuum) and does not produce any environmental pollution. Computer simulation of induction heating process is no longer only a tool for academics. Induction heating computer simulation has gained wider acceptance due to significant improvements in both computer hardware and software. More and more companies are beginning to use computer simulation for practical induction process and system design. Simulation is also a powerful tool for fundamental study of basic induction systems and for educational purposes. ELTA, Flux 2D and Flux 3D are computer software packages designed with an account of the specific features of induction heating systems. 1-D computer simulation has been used for the design of a robot guided induction scanning application, which demonstrates new possibilities for the induction heating technique. A study of a 2-D system for axle hardening demonstrates the procedure for induction coil and process design using computer simulation. Soon, it will be possible to do complete coupled electromagnetic plus thermal simulation not only for 1D and 2D systems, but also for 3D systems in order to predict temperature patterns and optimize complex induction systems without experiments. An experimental study will only be necessary for features uncovered by simulation, such as material response to induction heating conditions, induction coil lifetime, ect.
