In this process, the electromagnetic coupling between the induction coil and the induction target is a key, determining the heating performance as well as the resonant power converter operation. This letter proposes an accurate and cost-effective resonant tank identification method applied to induction heating systems. It is based on monitoring the resonant capacitor voltage in order to calculate the resonant tank quality factor. The proposed methodology has been tested using a versatile power electronics test bench applied to domestic induction heating, proving the feasibility of this proposal.2018http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/7824310.1109/TPEL.2017.2740998http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/78243oai:zaguan.unizar.es:78243info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/RTC-2014-1847-6info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/TEC2016-78358-RIEEE Transactions on Power Electronics 33, 3 (2018), 1897-1901All rights reservedhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
