0　Introduction

Inductionheatingtechnologyhasadvantageof high thermal efficiency，good frequency selectivity，and little environmental pollution，which is widely used in metal smelting，casting，welding and so on［1-2］.The general trend of induction heating power is higher frequency，higher power，and smaller size.Intelligence and digitization is becoming a development goal as well［3-8］.

Thetraditionalsuper-audioinductionheating power supply has larger volume and lower heating influence to weld dissimilar materials.Therefore，a portable super-audio induction heating power is introduced，which is easy to carry and can be used to weld dissimilar materials［9］.

1　Characteristics and Parameters

Portable super-audio induction heating power employs IGBT to invert energy，which has small size and high efficiency.It adopts high-frequency resonant capacitors，modular filter capacitors，a touch screen and other components，which are instead of a large number of electrolytic capacitors，buttons，and instruments.Meanwhile the layout of the entire equipment is rational and compact.Handheld super audio transformer uses 1J22 soft magnetic material as cores，which has high saturation and low loss.Primary coil is winded by a high temperature wire about 1 mm2，and can withstand up to 150 A byforced water-cooling.Water-cooling cables between power supply and the transformer can be extended to 30 meters or longer.With the handheld super audio transformer and coaxial water-cooling cables，you can easily move welding.4～20 mA control signal interface is used to adjust the power automatically within the specified range.Technical parameters of IGBT power supply are listed in Tab.1，and the internal assembly is shown in Fig.1.

2　Power Supply Design

2.1The electrical design

Fig.2　Power supply electrical schematic diagram

The main electrical circuit of induction heating power is shown in Fig.2.50 Hz three-phase current is rectified by uncontrolled rectifier bridge，and is transformed into 10～39 kHz single-phase super-audio current by IGBT inverter bridge after a filter.Then the current is input to a series resonant circuit which is composed by a transformer，an inductor and compensation capacitors.As a result， the work piece in the inductor is rapidly heated by super-audio eddy current.With the increase of the current frequency，the heating depth of the work piece is reduced.

As shown on above figure，Cd1，Ld，C1and C2constitute Π type filter.C1，C2are connected in series to reduce the voltage of a single capacitor.R2，R3equalize effect.Inverter bridge is composed of eight 300 A fast IGBT，in which two IGBT are in parallel to increase current.IGBT models are FF300RKS4，and each IGBT is connected by an anti-parallel diode.The role of the transformer is electricalisolationandloadmatching.Changing transformer ratio appropriately can adjust the resonanttankparameters，sothatdifferentload impedances are performed.

The resonant capacitor in common super audio induction heating power uses polypropylene film as a medium，the metal foil as electrodes，and capacitor oil potting.The capacitor which needs water cooling is large，so that the power size is up to 400 mm×500 mm×400 mm.Portable Super audio induction heating power supply employs high-frequency resonant capacitors，which size is only Φ65 mm× 45 mm.Those can withstand large high-frequency current with low equivalent series resistance and inductance，and only natural cooling is needed.DC filter uses modular industrial filter capacitors.They have aluminum heat sinks，very low equivalent series resistance，large RMS current and peak-peak current tolerance，and least inductance as possible.For the above reasons，they can replace the traditional electrolysis capacitors for long-life operation of the electrical system.High frequency resonant capacitor and modular industrial power supply filter capacitor greatly reduce the supply size and weight，and the weight of the power supply is only 35 kg，which is easy to carry.

2.2Hardware design

The connection of the hardware is shown in Fig.3.The output voltage and current are sampled by avoltage transmitter and a current transmitter，and then put into CPU.CPU adjusts PWM output signals，and drives the IGBT driver to control output power.Because of water cooling need，water pressure is detected.Once water pressure is low，the output power is shut down immediately.Components temperature is also monitored to avoid overheating.Itisconvenienttosetandshowparametersof power supply through the touch screen.Power reset and water tank are controlled by CPU through relays.

Fig.3　Hardware design of power supply

CPU control circuit is the core of the ultra-audio frequencypowersupply，includingCPU，voltage conversion unit，power supply unit，reset unit，debug unit and so on.

Super audio frequency range is 10～39 kHz，and the digital controller is necessary to achieve constant power control.It needs not only realize the digital phase-lockedfrequencytrackingfunction，but also have a state detection instruction，communication，interactive and other functions.High-frequency and multi-function operation requires that the controller has high operation speed，accuracy，and multiple analog sampling and analysis process.The controller also requires a strong parallel processing capability.For these characteristics，Luminary Micro Stellaris LM3S615 microcontroller family is chosen to be the main chip.32-bit LM3S615 controller is based on ARM CortexTM-M3，which the operating frequency is up to 50 MHz，with excellentcomputationalperformanceandexceptional systemresponsetointerrupts.LM3S615includes ARM CortexTM-M3 processor core，the nested vector interruptcontroller，pulse-widthmodulation （PWM）outputs，analog peripherals，serial communication peripherals，system peripherals，memory，andperipherals.ThePWMcontrolincludes three PWM generator modules.PWM generator generatestwoindependentPWMsignalswithprogrammable dead time delay，output PWM signal according to the operation counter and comparator output signal.It can realize each PWM signal output polaritycontrol，faulthandling，etc.，which meetstherequirementofIGBTinvertercircuit PWM controlling.

Signal interface circuit is used to determine the grouping of digital signal connection in order to avoid interference.Due to different supply voltage，voltage conversion circuit（as shown in Fig.4）realizes 5 V to 3.3 V signal conversion.Debug circuit is used to detect the performance of the CPU and debug the program.Reset circuit（as shown in Fig.5）is used to the power reset operation.

Because IGBT Inverter Bridge adopts two IGBT paralleling，itisdrivenbyeightPWMsignals.Special IGBT protection driver board is connected to the output PWM signals.IGBT driver board isolates the input signal and output signal electrically，and provides over-current protection.Detecting theover current signal，the driver board reduces the grid voltage first，and then delays triggering.When short circuit occurs，it executes a soft shut off，and blockades the input signal to perform a complete protectioncycle.Otherwise，itrestoresthe output to avoid the interference signal caused by frequent start.Only the short circuit threshold resistors Rn and grid resistance Rg need setting，and the rest of the driver protection parameters accept the default values.

2.3Software design

Program of induction heating power is developed by C language，and the main program flow chart is shown in Fig.6.The initial set of each register is carried out first.And then the initial value of output power is set after start signal was detected.Analog sample signals conclude current，voltage，capacitance temperature，cooling water temperature，water pressure，and temperature in the shell of the device.These parameters which have been put into a digital filter are monitored to keep operation stabilization.The product of inverter current and inverter voltage is output power.The central control strategyofpowercontrolsubroutineisdigital phase-locked loop control and constant power control algorithms.The program uses a digital PID algorithm to realize constant power control.Regulated by power control subroutine，inverter frequency of PWM signals is used to control the output power.If any error protection has been detected，CPU will stop running and alarm.

The output power control strategy is pulse frequency adjustment mode（PFM）.Intheinductionheating process，the closer IGBT inverter frequency is to the resonance frequency，the smaller the equivalent impedance of the load becomes.At the same time，the output power is larger，and the efficiencyishigher.Otherwise，powerbecomes smaller.Moreover，the resonant frequency of the load changes with temperature which is constantly changing.So output power can be changed by adjusting the frequency of the IGBT inverter，which needs following the resonant frequency.When the seriesresonancecircuitisinductive，theoutput current lags behind the voltage.Make sure the inverter frequency is slightly higher than the resonant frequency，and it will cause a dead zone in the lag time.As a consequence，IGBT and anti-parallel diode can be turned on and turned off in very smallcurrent，whichcaneffectivelyreducethe switching loss，and soft turn-off becomes true.

3　Conclusions
