Abstract
High frequency induction heating process of titanium wire is investigated numerically and experimentally. The electromagnetic thermal and fluid fields during high frequency induction heating process are calculated. The effects of current frequency and current value of coil on the thermal and flow fields are numerically studied. The change of the applied current has profounder influence on the melting rate than the change of current frequency did. The simulation results are verified by experiments, and good agreement with simulation. With the ability to observe temperature distribution in titanium wire during high frequency induction heating, the numerical simulation method is demonstrated to be a cost-effective tool in predicting the process of high frequency induction heating of titanium wire.
