High Frequency Power Supply Working Principle: The high frequency power supply for coreless induction furnace is usually obtained from ordinary supply system and its frequency is converted to higher value either by means of motor-generator…
High Frequency Eddy Current Heating - Working, Advantages and Applications: The articles to be heated are placed within a high frequency current carrying coil, alternating magnetic field is set up, eddy currents are induced in…
Induction Furnace - Definition, Types, Working Principle and Advantages: In induction heating effect of currents induced by electromagnetic action in the charge is employed. The heat developed depends on the power drawn by the charge.…
Arc Furnace - Definition, Types, Advantages and Application: When a high voltage is applied across an air gap, the air in the gap gets ionised under the influence of electrostatic forces and becomes conducting medium.…
Resistance Heating - Types, Advantages and Applications: Resistance heating is based upon the I2R effect. This method of heating has wide applicaÂtions such as heat treatment of metals (annealing, hardenÂing etc.), drying and baking of…
Different Types of Electric Heating: Different types of electric heating can be broadly classified as (i) power frequency heating and (ii) high frequency heating. Power frequency heating can be further classified as (i) resistance heating…
Three Modes of Heat Transfer (Conduction, Convection, Radiation): A heated substance will give off heat to another substance at a lower temperature. The three different modes of heat transfer are Conduction, Convection and Radiation. 1.…
What is Electric Heating and its Advantages? Heating is required for domestic purposes such as cooking and heating of buildings, as well as for industrial purposes such as melting of metals, hardening and tempering, caseÂhardening,…
Power Supply for Electrolytic Process: Power Supply for Electrolytic Process is direct current and at very low voltage. The power required for electrodeposition is usually very small (between 100 and 200 amperes at 10 or…
What is Electropolishing, Electrotyping, Electrofacing, Electrometallisation and Anodizing Closely allied to bright dipping is electropolishing, which utilises anodic treatment in specially formulated electrolytes to bring up a polished surface on such metals as stainless steel.…
