Co-Simulation – Induction Heating
 Fully coupled electromagnetic-thermal-structural problem.
 Wide range of temperatures from room temperature to 1000°C.

 Temperature dependent material properties

 Many material properties vary with temperature by up to a factor of 5.
 Magnetic materials turn non-magnetic at Curie temperature.
 Phase transformation of material leads to hardening
 Account for very small skin depth which varies with temperature
