ABSTRACT
Induction cookers are becoming increasingly popular due to their high efficiency and fire safety. More and more work is being done to expand their heating zone and enable universal heating of different types of metal cookware. This study is related to the implementation of multi-stage inverters in induction cookers, which are characterized by ZVS switching for low losses and a wide frequency range, as well as stable operation under different loads. The control of these inverters is unconventional and involves the possibility of changing various parameters. The study proposes a control system for a 6-phase multi-link inverter based on simulation studies. An operating algo-rithm is proposed and a program for digital control of the inverter is implemented using Arduino Due. Real results from the operation of the control system are presented.
