___________________________________________________________________________________________________ When induction surface hardening a shaft, achieving a case depth with a minimum required hardness in the shaft fillet without exceeding the maximum case depth in regions next to the fillet can present challenges, which are related to following phenomena: From an electromagnetic perspective, it is difficult to induce sufficient power density (heat source) [...]
Induction coil failure is a very complex subject because typically there is no single factor responsible for the failure but rather a combination of interrelated factors. At minimum, a coil failure analyst must have knowledge of electromagnetics, metallurgy, materials science, mechanics, heat transfer, and chemistry. Induction coil failure is a very complex subject because typically there is no single [...]
Even a cursory look at a comparison of network meshes used by different numerical methods reveals that depending upon specifics of a particular induction application; a particular type of mesh generation technique could be a decisive factor in a selection of numerical simulation techniques that would suit the best to modeling of a particular induction [...]
